We use PayPal Here as our primary POS for credit card donations. Lately I can enter all of the credit card information into a mobile device, via the PayPal Here app, but even when complete, the "Charge" button remains gray and un-selectable. Anybody know a workaround?
We have a big fundraiser tomorrow and this will be important to resolve.
Thanks!

I've run into this in the past and completely forgot what the issue was, and it is likely this:
EITHER the card number is entered incorrectly, or the exp. date, or the CSC code. Regardless, these don't match up, and PayPal cross-checks these in real time, so they can't complete the charge. Simple typo issue somewhere.
