Validating Foreign Delivery Addresses from PayPal


Info

When a customer uses PayPal Express to pay for an order, the checkout page where they would usually enter a valid delivery address is bypassed. Instead, the shipping address in the PayPal account is automatically transferred into CSS as the delivery address. When the customer is returned to your site for final confirmation of the order, CSS performs a foreign address validation check. If the address is in a country that has not been added in Settings ('Freight Country'), the address will be rejected. The customer will be informed that the delivery country is invalid.     


Offering PayPal to B2B Customers


Note
titleB2B Customers

If the Customer Maintenance page shown below isn't visible to you in the CMS, please let us know contact CV Support.
