Help Sim Outhouse in 2014

You don't have to register a Paypal account, not even in France. ;-) But maybe you have to change the language setting of Paypal. My French customers pay by credit card through Paypal without having to open an account.
 
I know that Francois, and as I wrote in the other thread, I have successfully used Paypal without registering in the past, to buy FSX addons.
However, in the recent days, when reaching the Paypal page for France, the option to pay as guest was not there.
In the list of mandatory fields, you had to specify all of your personnal details and choose a password for account creation.
So either you already had an account and you could log in, or you had to create one. The option to pay without creating an account was not offered.

That being said, after trying once more today, the fields for account creation were not there anymore for the French page. Which means I could make a donation without registering :jump:

I don't know what happened. Perhaps the Paypal guys made some mistake in the website configuration or something like that. Or perhaps it's something with the proxies I'm using at work. I'm currently going through an American proxy, so perhaps Paypal reacted on that...
 
I don't think that is exclusive to France. Years ago before I got an account they would let you use the system a few times without registering before they would force you to create an account.
