I've been having problems with the PayPal buttons on my website and see that PayPal want sellers to update to the new PayPal checkout (smart button).

However, when I looked at that it says that it is a credit option and for UK merchants Credit is a regulated activity. "Before integrating a PayPal Credit button, you must be authorized to act as a credit broker".

I have no wish to act as a credit broker and my understanding is the items we sell are below the value where credit would be offered anyway.

Is there now any way for small independent UK sellers to continue to use PayPal as a payment option without offering credit and having to register as a credit broker?
