Make Credit Card the Default Checkout Option for PayPal Standard

[Debu]

Hi there

I have almost configured my membership site using eMember. Now configuring the gateways. Click bank seems easy. Next is pay pal. Growing you site I saw – “Make Credit Card the Default Checkout Option for PayPal Standard” plugin page.

Is it possible to have this plugin for eMember. As eMember provides pay pal as the main payment gateway, this plugin/Addon can be very useful for eMember users using paypal as the mail gateway for receiving payments from members.

If you have a validated, PayPal Business account; you have the option of letting the buyer use credit/debit cards directly, without having to signup for a PayPal account:

Hi WZP i have the validated account.

The issue is while making the payment my readers do get the Credit card option but that Tab is not open by default. The buyer has to click on the button so that it the credit card tab opens.

I came across this plugin by Tips & Tricks – https://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/make-credit-card-the-default-checkout-option-for-paypal-standard-3512

Can we use this plugin with eMemeber also ?

This addon won’t work for PayPal buttons that you create in your PayPal account. When you create the PayPal button in your paypal account, you should be able to select an option to make this happen I think. Ask PayPal support the qeustion if they allow the credit card option to be default when the buy now button is created inside the paypal account.

HI there admin,

I verified with pay pal. I have a verified account where I can receive payment via credit cards. In my check out page I get the option for that – but that credit card tab is hidden and buyer needs to click on it and it expands.

If I may point out the plugin you have developed for eStore – https://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/make-credit-card-the-default-checkout-option-for-paypal-standard-3512

(found this while searching on google and it exactly solves what I am looking for – Force the check out page to expand the credit card option – overriding the cookies) –

For example when I checked out to purchase eMember the Credit card tab was expanded by default. The documentation of your plugin (https://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/make-credit-card-the-default-checkout-option-for-paypal-standard-3512) also mention that the plug overrides the cookie and forces the credit card tab to be expanded.

So was curious to know if I can use this plugin for my eMember site.

Thank you & waiting for inputs.

Remember, PayPal is in the business of wanting you to have a PayPal account.

 

If I may point out the plugin you have developed for eStore…

The buttons affected by the addon are created by the eStore plugin; which then redirects to PayPal. If you want that functionality, you must install and use the eStore plugin; in addition to the formentioned addon:

Thank you for the feed back. Seems this plugin is not available for eMember.

If you can add this plugin facility for eMember also, that will be really nice , as an eMember use – Paypal is the main gateway. And a plugin that can help in encouraging check out is always good.

Hope that plugin is soon released for eMember.

I think you are not understanding something…

In order to achieve what you want, you must use eMember, eStore, and the default option addon. eMember will use eStore to manage the sales, and eStore will use the default option addon, to ensure PayPal behaves in the desired manner.

An addon like that can’t work when the button is created in your PayPal account.

Do you understand the difference between a PayPal button created in your PayPal account and a shopping cart doing a PayPal transaction?

I got the point now.
