If you receive what looks like an invoice about your domain registration from a company called Domain Registry of America (DROA) do not respond. These “invoices” state that your domain name is soon to expire and you need to re-register now. DROA charges double or triple per year for domain names and also takes over ownership. If you receive a letter from this company, shred it, recycle it, throw it away, but don’t re-register your domain. If you ever have any questions about your domain name please contact your webmaster, hosting company, or current domain registrar. For more information about DROA click here.

Setting up PayPal as a payment method
You only need to complete a few steps in order to use PayPal with your MorePhotos shopping cart. The first step is to sign-up for a PayPal account if you do not already have one. Visit their website at www.paypal.com to get your free account. Once you’re signed up with PayPal log-in to your Online Manager and follow these steps:
- Click Cart Manager from the left, then click the Real-Time Processing tab from the top.
- Click the update icon to the right of Payment Service.
- Select PayPal from the Service Name drop down menu.
- Enter the email address associated with your PayPal account in the Account Name/Email text box.
- Select the appropriate currency from the Currency Code drop-down menu.
- Click the Update button at the bottom to save.
Now that we have your PayPal account information saved in the system, our next step is to setup a payment method for your clients that corresponds with the PayPal account.
- Click the Billing Info tab from the top of the page.
- In one of the blank Payment Method fields type in PayPal.
- Select Payment Service from the type drop-down menu.
- Click the Update button to save.
Once you have added PayPal to your Billing Info tab the PayPal payment method will be live on your site for customers to use.
ProTip: You don’t have to type “PayPal” into the payment method field, you can type in “Credit Cards” or something similar if you plan on using PayPal exclusively to process credit cards. When a client selects ANY payment method you have entered with a type “Payment Service” they are taken to the PayPal site to enter billing information.
