    We have paypal payments pro integrated into amember running the latest version. Before I go modifying code I wanted to make sure its necessary.

    On the paypal payments pro plugin payment page it has Address information required. Although it is good in most cases to require address verification for fraud scrubbing purposes it is not something we wish to require.

    We have some corporate clients in which many different empoyees have access to the corporate credit cards. Sometimes they are not always positive on the address on file.

    With that said paypal does not require a physical address if you require the CVV code.

    Is there a setting in amember to remove the "Address" information or make it "Optional" so it is not required to complete the credit card payment.

    We are not shipping anything, since this is a service, so the physical address is not necessary anyways.

    Thanks in advance for the reply.

    No there is no such option for billing address, so code should be modified.
    you can remove address verification block from /amember/plugins/payment/cc_core/cc_core.inc.php validate_cc_info function:

    Thanks Alex, I removed the verification block as you mentioned and also modified the "cc_info.html" template to remove all those address/phone related fields completely. I now have just the CC information which is what i wanted.

    Hopefully this post will help anyone else looking for similar request.

    Thanks for your fast reply yesterday.
