paying without paypal from abroad??

(1/2) > >>

Robomcd:
We decided to get the Pro version. Our host fits all requirement, so I started buying it. Goes to the page where it gives the option to pay also by credit card without using Paypal.  Great.

So I fill the country (Czech Republic),  and the page start reloading and suddenly it wants me to create a paypal account or at least write and confirm a (any?) password. It then states that I automatically agree that Paypal gives my information to whoever they want?

I could not find an opt-out. Is this a normal behavior of that specific online payment page or paypal?

Sorry, but no way for a simple payment am I going to allow this to PayPal. Any suggestions?     

SMFHacks:
You shouldn't have to create a paypal account that part is optionally just skip that step.
We only accept paypal at this time.

Robomcd:
Thanks for the quick reply. Not sure I can skip that step. Even without filling the passwords, it still wants me to agree with the lack of privacy policy, and that is the step I do not like

payment session

Hope this session stays up long enough for you to see what I mean.

I have a way around it, but maybe other people do not and also do not want to comply with this.

SMFHacks:
Either that or you can buy me an amazon gift card for $50

Robomcd:
I now found out that our other non-profit website tries a same thing under our donation button (to paypal). That's "new" (at least, I have not checked it quite long). A third site, specially for our museum, is linked to the same paypal account. However, there I can still pay with credit card without that nonsense. So I donated $ 50 to our account, and now can pay you directly through Paypal. Still, its annoying that it does that, I have to repair it on our own site (copy the good button code to the other site).

Ok, thanks for the offer about amazon, don't need it. I managed to transfer the funds and download the program and found the email in my spam folder.

Bit off-topic, but should I uninstall gallery lite before installing pro or does it overwrite the lite version automatically?
