Is "account optional" feature available for PayPal's Subscriptions?


We can see that "account optional" is available on Paypal's sketch:

Yet testing in the sandbox the option does not appear:

Is that due to the sandbox environment or is "account optional" feature not available for Suscriptions ?

Thank you for your support.

Edit: It also appear here that subscription should support credit card: enter image description here


Solution

  • Unfortunately, no. Guest Checkout is not available with PayPal Subscriptions.

    If you want to manage recurring profiles with direct credit cards you'll need to add PayPal Pro w/ Recurring Payments. Then you can build those types of subscriptions with a custom checkout and the APIs (or configure it in a platform/plugin that integrates it for you.)
