Why is Shopify processing PayPal payments...???

[TGGP]

"Beginning the week of Oct 7, 2024, Shopify Payments will process all of your new PayPal transactions."

Why is this happening...??

What happens with our stores PP acct...???

What happens if we have vendor payments set up thru PP....such as UPS, USPS etc...???

What happens with our PP acct debit cards usability???

Good luck getting an answer on this. I had a very long chat with a close-to-useless agent who first assured me this wasn't the case, then told me it's happening but I can opt out, then told me there was nothing I could do about it. Asked about removing PP and just running my own button or other options and was told it would be escalated. I've heard nothing since.

We've been teetering on ditching shopify for a bit now, but I think we may be able to work around this by going full Hydrogen and ditching shopify's UI all together. We'll see.

Ive been having issues getting my credit card money from Shopify . It's taking 5-7 days from sale to bank. PayPal funds are at least in my account instantly. Does this mean that is being hijaacked by Shopify too now and we will be at their mercy and take 5-7 days for our PayPal funds now too?  As always, getting anyone at Shopify to be helpful or accountable is a waste of time.

This is my exact concern. Very annoying.
