Paypal Payflow Pro without PayPal Pro account

Hello,
I have been pulling my hair out over this one and have looked into a bunch of different discussions on this but still don’t have an answer.

I have a client in Australia. The site is setup and ready to go using S2 Members. We need to integrate payment. Paypal Pro is NOT available in Australia but they do have a Paypal PayFlow account.

How can I get it to accept payment via credit card without the paypal pro account? Is that possible. It seems like others have done it in the past but I cannot get a straight answer.

Please see this post: http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/integrate-eway/#post-14539

It sounds like Richard got it working. Can you give me Richard’s email so I can contact him and ask?

Please help! This is the last item before we can finally launch this site!

Hello Chase,

I’m afraid you will need to use PayPal pro in order to accept payments through credit/debit cards, check this article for what you can and can’t do with the different PayPal accounts: Knowledge Base » PayPal® Services / A Quick Comparison

For Richard, you can contact him or ask him for details in that same post. :)

Hi Chase.

I can’t give you his email address, but I can open the thread so you post a reply there… Done. When you post there, if he’s still subscribed to the thread, he’ll get a notification.

I hope that helps. :)

Now, when I try to go to that link to reply to Richard – it’s not an active link – please advise.

Chase,

I just clicked on http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/integrate-eway/#post-14539 and it took me straight to the post where there’s an edit box at the bottom letting me post a reply. Is that not what you see?

I get a page not found error: http://dev.riefmedia.com/chase_screenshot//s2Member%C2%AE_%7C_Page_not_found-20121120-115149.jpg

I also search for it and can see it in the search results and get a page not found error there as well.

Weird. I can see the page if I’m logged in to my account, but not if I log out. There seems to be a problem with the forum script when reopening a thread. I’ll ask Jason about it.

Chase, today another member here said that he has PayPal Pro in Australia. Thought you may be interested in checking out his thread: http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/paypal-pro-does-work-in-australia/
