Hi Joseph and Mike,
During my search to find a solution to very same issue, I came across a thread that told me to add this to my css and it worked flawlessly: (I was having trouble because my Free Product would still show this PayPal button in the cart… very confusing for customers)
.woocommerce-cart #paypal-braintree-button-container {
display: none;
}
I got the suggestion from here:
Remove Braintree PayPal Checkout button from WooCommerce Cart
Thank you both for contributing to challenges such as these. It is vital to kill frustration when setting up your ecommerce.
