Hi,
I'm bases in Hong Kong and therefore have a HK PayPal account.
I started selling my own offers and use PayPal for collecting PayPal payments and Stripe for collecting credit card payments.
I'd like to switch completly to PayPal. Which means I'd like to collect credit card payments with my HK PayPal account.
When somebody wants to pay with a HK ip address then PayPal offers him the option to pay via credit or debit card.
But when a user from Germany wants to pay then he doesn't get the option to pay via credit card. He only gets the option
to either login to their PayPal account or create a PP account.
How can I enable credit and debit card payments for Germany and other EU countries?
Thanks

Hi @changu,
Thank you for your post! If only one of your customers is not getting the option to use guest checkout, it is likely either a limitation of the country of the member, or there may be a security risk associated with the customer's purchase that is causing the system to only offer payment after login. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.
