By enabling Guest Checkout within your PayPal account settings, buyers will have the option to check out using a debit or credit card without the need for a PayPal account login.

The buyer's checkout view on PayPal depends on their web browser's cookies:

- **If a PayPal cookie has been created**: When the buyer lands on a PayPal page, they will be presented with the PayPal Login but still have the option to select “Pay with card”.

- **If a PayPal cookie has not been defined**: The buyer will instead see a default view of Guest Checkout, allowing for debit/credit payment.
