The merchant isn't able to accept payment at this time

I have set up PayPal on my website, but when a customer tries to make payment, they get the error

'Merchant isn't able to accept payment at this time'

 

Does anyone know why this is?

 

Thanks

Hey @LisaTighe, 

 

Thanks for asking your question here. I am sorry to hear that buyers get the notification that they cannot send payments. This can occur if there is a limitation on the account that prevents you from receiving payments. I would advise checking the account, to see if there are any notifications or if we are asking for information from you in the 'Resolution Centre'. If you see a notification it will also explain what information we need to resolve this.  If an account is in good order you should be able to receive payments. If you need more help you can always contact us through the 'Help & contact' link at the bottom of each page or through Twitter and Facebook

 

I hope this information helps.
