    I am selling digital items, and customers do not provide their address on my website when they place an order. I want to know if you can edit this PayPal plugin to add a rule that sends the billing address instead of the shipping address.

    Hi @bob0101

    No, PayPal does not provide a way for plugins to retrieve the billing address, unless it’s enabled on your account. It’s a limitation of PayPal which they seem uninterested in addressing.

    The only way to get the billing address is to request that they enable this feature on your account. Don’t be surprised if they refuse or state they don’t support that feature. https://docs.paymentplugins.com/wc-paypal/config/#/billing_address_request

    Kind Regards

    Unfortunately it doesn’t work that way. The plugin you’re referencing uses an older PayPal API that is being deprecated.

    You could enable only the Credit/Debit button on your checkout page. This plugin doesn’t render a card only form as it’s more centered toward PayPal specific payments.

    As an example, this plugin goes alongside our Stripe plugin well where you offer credit card payments through Stripe and PayPal payments through this plugin.

    Kind Regards

    I don’t believe so, but I can’t speak for PayPal. Your best bet is to contact them directly about that.
