 * Setting up a website for a client (not my website).
 * 1)Woocommerce payments setup requires me to log into MY WordPress account. WHY?
   
   2)Does my client need a WordPress account? They do not understand or want a WordPress
   account!

 * Hi [@beezeeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beezeeb/) – Sorry for the delay
   here! WooCommerce Payments requires connecting a WordPress.com account to connect
   to the WooCommerce Payments servers, as described in our docs: [https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/payments/faq/wordpress-com-account/](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/payments/faq/wordpress-com-account/)
 * Either you would need to login to your account, or as I would suggest, talk to
   your client about _why_ it’s required. There are no other charges associated 
   with having a WordPress.com account, so the implications are very low.

 * Reading further it appears that WooCommerce Payments does not work with my clients
   PayPal account. My client would also need a Stripe account?

 * WooCommerce Payments is specifically a Stripe integration.
    If you’d like to 
   integrate PayPal I would suggest checking out PayPal Payments: [https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-paypal-payments/](https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-paypal-payments/)

 * Sorry but given the PayPal plugin hasn’t been updated (3 months) and tested with
   the latest WordPress release, and it’s extremely poor ratings, no thank you.

 * I’ve had to set this to Solved since we’re no longer discussing WooCommerce Payments,
   though I am curious about where you’re seeing your last statement.
 * The PayPal Payments plugin has zero ratings (due to how new it is to the marketplace)
   and has been updated just this month, as you can see here:

 * If you have any further questions about the PayPal Payments plugin you can find
   support for that here: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-paypal-payments/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-paypal-payments/)
 * Thanks!
