Paypal not showing up as a payment option

When I setup my shopify store I used an email account that is linked to a PayPal personal account. I noticed that PayPal was not showing up as a payment option in my shopify store . So I upgraded my PayPal to a business account but PayPal is still not coming up as a payment option

Hi @Lienne1 .

You’ll need to finish setting up the connection with PayPal - this will not be done automatically after you create a business profile.

Please ensure that you’ve followed these steps:

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Payments.
  2. In the Additional payment methods section, find PayPal.
  3. Click Manage.
  4. Click Deactivate PayPal Express Checkout.
  5. Click Deactivate PayPal Express Checkout again to confirm.
  6. Click Activate PayPal Express Checkout.
  7. Enter the email address for your PayPal account, and then click Next.
  8. Enter the password for your PayPal account, and then click Log In.
  9. On the PayPal permissions page, click I Give Permission.
  10. On the PayPal confirmation page, click Go back to Shopify.
  11. Make a test transaction to make sure everything is set up properly.

If you are still experiencing issues, please let me know and include a screenshot of what you’re seeing on your end. I will help you troubleshoot further.

Cheers!

Please note the ‘Additional payment methods section’ is not coming up on my profile

That’s quite strange, @Lienne1 .

The only reason I can think of is that you are in a region that doesn’t offer PayPal as a payment gateway. Which country are you in?

I’m having the same problem please assist me

Hello,

I’m having the same problem. Paypal is correctly setted and it works for most of my clients, but in the last week 2 of them sent me a message with screenshots of their cart and the Paypal option is not showing (nor is the GooglePay one). How can I fix this? Thanks
