YITH PayPal Express Checkout for WooCommerce

Description

Have you ever found yourself overwhelmed with customers complaints about PayPal payments that have not been processed immediately? Or complaints about orders paid inadvertently with e-check? Well, it’s routine issues that can happen, but now PayPal has made a new payment gateway available, a more performing and immediate one. Thanks to a one-to-one communication to the servers, the order is processed on the very moment it’s placed and the transaction is immediate.

Forget about pending orders waiting for the IPN that has not been sent yet. And forget about orders that can be completed after days because paid with e-check if you enable the dedicated option requiring only instant payments.

Last but not least, thanks to this new payment gateway, PayPal gives you also the possibility to choose among instant payments or authorize-mode ones. If you choose the latter, the payment is authorized but the transaction is made only when you are ready to process the order.

An advanced tool and the security granted by PayPal with a totally FREE plugin!

I have an error “PayPal error (10727): Shipping Address1 Empty – The field Shipping Address1 is required”. This only happen if sandbox business account country is US and the user is US either. User non-US don’t encountered this error . If sandbox business account country is non-US, nothing happens. Because my product is virtual so I don’t need an address. Please help me solve the problem, thanks

I have used the YITH PayPal Express Checkout now for a number of years and find it works really well. I have seen some who maybe know little about PayPal checkout plugins and have given poor ratings which is a little unfair as I have tried others and found this plugin works best for my requirements.

Very poor support service, little interest. They don’t know how to solve the security issue of the “YITH PayPal Express Checkout” plugin.
