    Hi guys,

    I am currently setting up a website where I only use Paypal express. So from my cart page the only option is to use paypal express. That is working smoothly. However when a user is coming back from paypal the only billing information I am getting is Name and E-Mail address. Is there a way of getting the full address as well? Is that a setting I am managing via your plugin or via paypal directly?

    Cheers Nick

    Hi @findingitontheway

    Although the checkout page shows only the name and the email address used ( https://cld.wthms.co/gm53cL ), the customers, the shipping address is recorded also for the billing address after the order is placed ( https://cld.wthms.co/S5zOFV ).

    This the expected behavior by PayPal’s API as the billing address information is what is verified for payment by PayPal.

    Hi John,

    thanks for you reply and sorry that I wasn’t^^.

    Unfortunately what you are saying is not really happening in my case.

    I am only selling digital products and if someone places an order and checks out with Paypal Express I only get Firstname Lastname and E-Mail-Address from paypal but not the shipping address. Am I missing a setting?

    Cheers Nick
