Sorry for the delay, guys. We are going to have it done this month. Preparing 4.4.2 for release takes some time. I hope this change will be included in 4.4.2, too. We'll write something about that in the X-Cart Changelog.

Can't wait for you guys to release 4.4.2 with paypal line items in the end of December. Hopefully, no more delayed.

I have PayPal as my only checkout method, and I have tried to make it obvious on my site that you do not need a PayPal account check out (Skip below "Log in to my PayPal account" and you will see "Pay with a debit or credit card".), but I lose a lot of sales after they go to PayPal.

Is it possible to have it default to have the tab "Pay with debit or credit card" open instead of defaulting to having the "log in to my paypal account" tab open?

This says you guys have got this working with Express checkout.

Is this going to be implemented with Standard? I imagine many users using paypal as their only option are the ones that need line items the most.

I haven't tested yet to see if it is already done-- am waiting for the upgrade pack.

Thank you!

AFAIK Paypal implemented new checkout flow for Express Checkout only. I heard they are going to have it for their other payment methods some time later. Once they implement new checkout flow for their other payment methods we will consider changing our integrations for them, too! But first of all we should wait for details on implementation from Paypal reps.

I'm pretty sure this is not just for Express Checkout.

I use Paypal Standard. In my Paypal account I already setup the new design for the improved checkout flow. I can see it when I checkout through Payments Standard. I see everything new as it should be-- except line items. I hope you guys can look into this!

Here-- I have attached a screenshot showing my Paypal Standard checkout. It says at the top "welcome to the new Paypal checkout." However, line items have not been implemented.

Jadefrolics, thank you for the update. Looks like Paypal forgot to inform us about the change for their Standard method. Or we missed it somehow.

Anyway, I submitted request for line items support for Paypal Standard integration, too.
However, I am not sure when it will be done as we've just released 4.4.2 and the change may be included in v4.4.3 only (I don't have any ETA for 4.4.3 release).

Thanks, Alex.

I would definitely appreciate being able to show my customer more than a simple "your total cost, including shipping" as the only line-item in a paypal invoice.

however..

First, the new USPS standards must be implemented in xcart before the May deadline. Let's not have another catch-up scenario like we had with the Jan 2nd USPS changes, okay? PLEASE.

And, another PLEASE!.. do some due diligence testing with the paypal line-item coding. Glitches and snafus at that part of the purchasing process can cause more than just a confused customer, it can result in a non-customer. So, take your time in the implementation, but in a speedy fashion.

Thanks!

Though this "offtopic" here I'll tell everyone that the USPS May update is scheduled to be included in v4.4.3 (should be released before May).

Just to remind - this topic is about new Paypal checkout flow
