There could be several issues causing the "Debit or Credit Card" option to not work in your PayPal integration on Webflow. Here are some possible causes and solutions to consider:

  1. Integration configuration:
  • Double-check that you have set up the PayPal integration correctly in Webflow. Ensure that you have connected the correct PayPal account and that you have enabled the "Debit or Credit Card" option within the PayPal settings.
  • Verify that you have entered the correct API credentials for your PayPal account in Webflow. Incorrect credentials can cause issues with payment processing.
  1. PayPal account limitations:
  • Some PayPal accounts may have limitations imposed by PayPal itself. These limitations can restrict certain payment methods or transactions. Make sure that your PayPal account is verified and does not have any restrictions that could be blocking the "Debit or Credit Card" option.
  1. Compatibility issues:
  • It's possible that there may be compatibility issues between your Webflow website and the PayPal integration. Ensure that you are using the latest version of the Webflow platform, and check for any known issues or conflicts with the PayPal integration.
  • Consider reaching out to PayPal support or the Webflow community for assistance in troubleshooting compatibility issues.
  1. Third-party conflicts:
  • If you have any custom code or third-party integrations on your Webflow website, they could be conflicting with the PayPal integration. Temporarily disable any custom code or integrations to see if the "Debit or Credit Card" option starts working again. Then, carefully reintroduce them one by one to identify the conflicting component.
  1. Browser or device issues:
  • Test the PayPal integration on different browsers and devices to rule out any browser-specific or device-specific issues. If the issue occurs only on a specific browser or device, it may indicate a compatibility problem that needs to be addressed.

Remember to test the "Debit or Credit Card" option thoroughly after implementing any potential solutions to ensure that it is functioning as expected and not resulting in lost sales.
