PayPal Express Checkout Guest Option

I'm trying to allow guest payment option in my express checkout integration.

I set up SOLUTIONTYPE=Sole and LANDINGPAGE=Billing in my SetExpressCheckout call, but it didn't work. I still get the create a PayPal account thing.

I heard that I also need to set PayPal Account Optional to ON in my PayPal account. The strange thing is that I couldn't find that option in my Business account! Any idea?

As per the doc (quote below), the SOLUTIONTYPE value will not work --

until you enable the "PayPal Account Optional" setting. (see link for info & video)

SOLUTIONTYPE
(Optional) Type of checkout flow. It is one of the following values:

Sole – Buyer does not need to create a PayPal account to check out. This is referred to as PayPal Account Optional.

Mark – Buyer must have a PayPal account to check out.

Note: You can pass Mark to selectively override the PayPal Account Optional setting if PayPal Account Optional is turned on in your merchant account. Passing Sole has no effect if PayPal Account Optional is turned off in your account.
