    Hi,

    I have setup aMember with the Paypal_r plugin for payment.

    One problem that I am finding is that members can't pay with their paypal account balance UNLESS they have a credit card enabled on that account.

    If they don't, they get asked to insert a credit card to the account before proceeding.

    Is there any way to remove this limitation?

    Thanks

    From what I understand paypal requires a credit card for recurring billing- even if its being paid from a bank or balance. Think it has to do with their account verification- but best to ask paypal for a conclusive answer.

    I already sent them a support ticket too.

    If that is the case it would highly limit the potential client base though, as many people just use personal paypal accounts with no credit card on them.

    Thanks for the input
