Yes, you will need to turn on the option.
To enable the PayPal Account Optional feature:
Log on, then scroll down to Selling tools, click Seller Preferences
Click Update for Website Preferences
Locate PayPal Account Optional section
Click On and hit Save at the bottom.
Go back to Summary page and click Manage Invoices to create one to send. The option will appear during checkout just under log in box.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Is your account a Personal account? When you land on the Summary page, you do not see "Selling Tools" or "Seller Preferences" anywhere? Premier/Business accts have the Seller Preferences where you can turn "PayPal Account Optional" feature. You may need to upgrade to Premier/Business account.
