Hi, did you follow the instructions below?

Kind regards.

Yes I just double checked that and venmo is unchecked in the “Disable Funding” section

Hi, can you share the URL to page or post with the button, so that I can check in my mobile phone.

Also what mobile phone did you use for testing?

Thank you.

Testing on iPhone iOS 16.5

Hi, just to confirm with you. Are you an American citizen? Do you live in the USA?

Kind regards.

yes to both questions. Why is this relevant?

The Venmo option with the plugin seems to be working fine. I tested on iPhone using iOS 16.5. The issue is most likely to do with a conflict, or a device issue or the PayPal account not having certain permissions.

Venmo service is offered in the US only. The merchant account also needs to have Venmo enabled. Otherwise PayPal won’t show the option.

At the moment, I am not seeing the Venmo option on your webpage using a desktop PC. Is there caching on the site? If it is loading cached version of the JavaScript file since you updated the settings, it will have discrepancies.

@mra13 this is just so odd. I cannot see the venmo button on mobile, but can indeed see it on desktop. So you’re seeing the opposite? There is no caching on the website, and I have cleared my broswer caches.

Hi, I can also confirm that I cannot see the Venmo button in my browser while using my laptop.

Kind regards.

@mbrsolution can you see it on mobile? what browser are you using on your laptop?

This makes no sense at all.

Hi, I used the following browsers and the Venmo button did not show up.

• Google Chrome
• Microsoft Edge
• Firefox
• Seamonkey

I used an Android mobile phone and the Venmo button did not show up. I am wondering if it only shows up if you are physically in the USA. After all Venmo service only works in the USA.

Kind regards.

@mbrsolution well yeah you know it only works in the US, isn’t that why you asked where i am located? You guys don’t use a VPN for testing? Why offer this feature if you can’t test it?

@mra13 any ideas on this issue? I still can’t get the venmo button to display on mobile.

I don’t know what else it could be ?? I don’t know enough about Venmo and if it requires something extra for mobile devices. I have asked a question to PayPal tech support to see if I can get any insight about this.

@bronw3n, I have received a response from my contact within the PayPal engineering team with some additional clarification. Please check all the following points to see if any of these apply for the Venmo option on mobile device:

• US-based sellers and US-based buyers only.
• Transaction must be in USD.
• Buyers on mobile devices must use Safari on iOS or Chrome on Android.
• Buyers on desktop web browsers can use any major web browser.
• Buyers must have the Venmo iOS or Android app installed.
• Has to be for One-time payments (not recurring payments).
