Hello, I opened a PayPal.Me account as it is stated that people do not need to have a PayPal account to pay me through that system.
Now, every time the link is pressed people get prompted for a PayPal account login!
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks,
Elsa

Hi @ElsaPrincessa,
In order to send money via a PayPal.me link, the sender must have a PayPal account, and if they do not already have one, they will be prompted to create an account when they follow your link.
They can quickly and easily create their own PayPal account within a few minutes in order to send you the payment.
I hope this helps,
Jack

Dear Jack, thank you for taking the time to answer me.
It does say in the info on PayPal.Me that people do not have to have an account.
Do you know any way to receive card payments on this system without having to create an account?

Paypal Jack is a paypal employee so is giving you factual information.
The only paypal.me link that can accept cards are for business paypal account holders I believe.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
