Hello @rubenecho ,
At this point, merchants who are eligible for Advanced Card Processing are automatically directed to use it instead of the Standard Card Gateway. That change was introduced to simplify the setup and streamline the experience, as Advanced Card Processing is generally a more capable option.
We noticed that some users still prefer the previous setup, and we’re currently working on introducing a filter to allow reverting to the standard card button if desired.
Until that is available, the only workaround is to downgrade the plugin to version 3.0.9. Before downgrading, you’ll need to disconnect the current onboarding via the plugin settings and effectively start over. You can download version 3.0.9 here: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-paypal-payments/releases/tag/3.0.9
Let me know if you need help with the steps.
Kind Regards,
Krystian

Hi Krystian,
Thank you for the detailed explanation.
Before downgrading, can you please send me a link or explain how to disconnect the current onboarding?
I just want to make sure I have all the information I need before doing this and after installing the downgraded version of the plugin can I upgrade to the latest version and keep the old layout?
Kind Regards
Ruben
Hello @rubenecho
To disconnect the current onboarding, the steps depend on which version of the plugin you are using.
If you are still on the legacy UI:
- Navigate to the PayPal Payments plugin settings.
- Go to the Connection tab.
- Scroll to the bottom and click the Clear Now button.
- You can then attempt to onboard the plugin again.
If you already have the new UI:
- Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Payments > PayPal > Settings.
- Click Disconnect.
- When prompted, tick Start over.
After clearing or disconnecting, the plugin may switch you to the new UI. This is expected once the data has been reset. If you want to keep using the old UI, you have two options:
- Install this package: Download package
- Or add this snippet to your site to force-disable the new UI:
add_filter('woocommerce.feature-flags.woocommerce_paypal_payments.settings_enabled', '__return_false');
It is important to do the cleanup step described above before applying the package or the snippet(!)
Kind Regards,
Krystian
