How do I test "checkout without a PayPal account" on PayPal sandbox site?

A customer reported that he couldn't pay for our service using Paypal until he created a Paypal account. Since we have the necessary setting enabled that's something that needs debugging.

I'd like to reproduce the problem on https://developer.paypal.com/ but I don't see how to "pay" without either logging into account or creating an account there.

If you're using Payments Standard then this will be cookie based. If any user on the computer/browser being used has ever signed in to a PayPal account it will assume that you'll be using PayPal and won't give you the guest checkout option. Clearing your browser cache/cookies should solve this issue, but only until you log in again.

If you want to avoid that you can use Express Checkout with SOLUTIONTYPE=Sole and LANDINGPAGE=Billing. This will force the Guest Checkout option regardless of any cookies set in the browser.
