Hi Gene,
PayPal and the ability to use the Guest checkout is wholly under the control of PayPal. I’ve met some countries where the Guest checkout just doesn’t seem to be allowed, Ireland for one but I wasn’t aware of Germany.
There are two solutions to this:
- Sign up for PayPal Payments Pro and then enable it in the Crossmember settings. PayPal Pro will allow for Credit Card Payments.
- Give me a couple more weeks and a new integration with Stripe (stripe.com) will go live. I’ve been a bit sluggish on this integration over the Christmas break but it’s pretty much all done with just a bit more testing to do. Stripe is one of the major credit/debit card payment providers online and their fees are reasonable.
Hope that helps,
Brian.
