Hi!

Accordning to this post viewtopic.php?f=4&t=304
we could let people pay with credit card OR paypal even if we do not use Paypal PRO.

All we need is Paypal Express Checkout and then we can use s2member Pro forms. Right?

However, on Paypal's website where they compare Website Payments Standard and Express Checkout, it says that the customer NEEDS a Paypal account if we use Express Checkout. While they don't need it when using Website Payments Standard.

I want my customers to be able to pay with their cards without signing up for a paypal account. Isn't that the whole point with offering credit card payments?

So question is: Can I use the Website Payments Standard and s2member Pro forms together?
Can people still pay with Paypal them if they want to?

Thank you!

The pro-form integrates with Express Checkout, not Website Payment Standard, and it is my understanding that Express Checkout requires a PayPal account.

I had a user tell me he was able to use Express Checkout with the pro-form, without requiringt he user to have a PayPal account. He said he found a setting that removed that requirement, but I never confirmed this myself or with someone else.

I remember seeing such setting for Website Payment Standard, but don't know if it applies to Express Checkout. You may want to try that and see if it works. Please let me know how it goes.

I hope that helps.
