SYNOPSIS

INHERITANCE
eBay::API::XML::DataType::ExpressPreferencesType inherits from the eBay::API::XML::BaseDataType class

Subroutines:

  setDefaultPayPalAccount()
For eBay Germany users only. The PayPal account (email address) to use for eBay Express payments during checkout. If the first item in an order doesn't specify a PayPal account, Express Germany uses this default PayPal account for the item. (The account specified for the first item is used for all items in the same order.)<br> <br> This default account is only used for Express payments during checkout; it has no effect on item data. (To specify a default PayPal account for items, use the PayPal fields in the SellerPaymentPreferences node.)<br> <br> Only applicable to sellers who are qualified to list on Express Germany. Call GetUser to determine the seller's Express eligibility. <br> <br> When you set this value using SetUserPreferences, eBay validates that the PayPal account qualifies for Express. We check that the account is in good standing, it is a Business or Premier account, and it does not block unconfirmed addresses. This means the seller needs to configure their PayPal account correctly before calling SetUserPreferences.<br> <br> <span class="tablenote"><b>Note:</b> If the PayPal account becomes ineligible later (e.g., the seller blocks unconfirmed addresses), GetUserPreferences still returns the specified email address. Therefore, the existence of this preference in GetUserPreferences does not guarantee that the specified address is valid for Express. When a PayPal account becomes ineligible, Express reevaluates the eligibility of the seller and their items, and may remove the seller's items from Express. See the eBay Web Services guide links below for more information.</span><br> <br> This preference does not control the seller's eligibility for Express. However, it can control an item's eligibility in some cases. That is, for a fixed-price or Store Inventory item to be eligible for Express Germany, either the item or this Express preference must specify a valid PayPal email address. (For other eligibility requirements, see the eBay Web Services guide.)<br> <br> In GetUserPreferences, this preference is only returned if a default PayPal account has been specified.
