Buyers Can Checkout Without a PayPal Account.  PayPal has optimized the checkout experience.

For first time buyers, signing up for a PayPal account is optional. This means customers can complete their payments first, and then decide whether to save their information in a PayPal account for future purchases. 

Here’s how this easier checkout works:

1. Customers enter their name and shipping address.
2. They’re prompted for their credit card, email address, and phone number.
3. (Optional) After reviewing their information, customers may choose to save their information by creating a PayPal account to make future transactions faster.

Please note that PayPal’s fraud prevention measures remain in effect for buyers who use this checkout. PayPal applies the same techniques for this checkout as it does for other transactions.

PayPal enables any individual or business with an email address to securely, easily, and quickly send and receive payments online. PayPal's service builds on the existing financial infrastructure of bank accounts and credit cards, and uses the world's most advanced proprietary fraud prevention system to create a safe, global, real-time payment service.
