Hi @Elctruler,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community! I'm happy to provide some assistance with setting up PayPal, to ensure this gets resolved. To confirm I'm fully understanding, was PayPal previously available within the Payments section of the Shopify admin? 

 

If so, I encourage you to complete the following troubleshooting step:

 

  • From the Shopify admin, head to Settings > Payments.
  • Under the Additional payment methods section, select Add payment methods. 
  • In the search bar, type PayPal. 
  • Select this payment option by clicking Activate. 

 

In the case you don't see PayPal as an additional payment method, please feel free to connect with us directly. This will allow our advisor team to investigate further and ensure this gets resolved as quickly as possible. 

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Hi, @Paul_Fraser2!

 

Thanks for joining this thread. If you go to Settings > Payments, can you see an option for PayPal under Additional Payment Methods, as shown here?


 

 

If not, please share a screenshot of what you see on that screen? Thanks!

Hi @Paul_Fraser2,

 

If you click "Add payment method" and look for PayPal, is it missing entirely? Can you also tell me what country your store address is in?

Hi, @Dunusha!

 

Thanks for reaching out. Are you able to add PayPal as a payment provider as Victor suggested?
