Could you tell us the settings you have for your PayPal Pro module?

Is the payment method perhaps restricted to certain Geo Zones?

I got API settings configured, Geo Zone are configured as All zones, i tried to switch just for Canada Ontario but it still gives the same problem.

I just checked this myself. With the PayPal Pro extension you can only process credit cards to the PayPal account. If you want to accept payments from PayPal accounts you should enable the PayPal Standard method. Or look at PayPal express:

No problem. You can rename the extension from "Credit or Debit Card (Processed securely by PayPal)" to "Credit Card" by going to catalog/language/your_lang/payment/pp_pro_uk.php and replacing:

Code: Select all

$_['text_title']           = 'Credit or Debit Card (Processed securely by PayPal)';
with

Code: Select all

$_['text_title']           = 'Credit or Debit Card';
That way the user isn't being mislead or confused :)

It is not the text that is confusing, the button itself to checkout by paypal email is missing.
