    Anyone know how to get Switch or Maestro options in the PayPal Pro plugin? Everything's working well for credit cards, and PayPal offer debit card processing so I'd like to offer my customers this option.

    Any hints gratefully received!

    Alex - does 'integration docs' refer to Paypal's docs? According to the PayPal website, PayPal Pro accepts Debit Cards. The problem is I don't get this option when paying via the amember integration. (Although I do when paying via the PayPal pro virtual terminal)

    (Here's what PayPal say: Accept debit and credit card payments directly on your website; PayPal processes payments in the background, so you control the customer experience.)

    Regards

    Steve

    "Debit cards" does not mean Switch or Maestro. Visa can be also a debit card.

    In the technical integration docs for Paypal Pro, there are options only for Visa/MC/Discover/AMEX, unfortunately.
