    Use Stripe instead, much better, significantly cheaper! Sorry, that wasn't much help at all.

    That option is already set to on but theres no option to pay by card, only login to a paypal account. Anyone else? Shouldn't be this hard should it?

    You don't say how you are asking for payment.

    Typically, if you are using Paypal buttons or similar, it will give the option to pay by Paypal or card - unless you are logged in to your Paypal account already in which case it defaults to Paypal only.

    The one exception I've found is when using paypal.me links when only Paypal is available.

    It's simply a case of an SEO client wishing to pay by card (everyone else does bank transfer). I cant find any way to create a button where the option to pay by card shows.... and yes I've tested with myself logged out
