Hi there!
PayPal Standard will be hidden only for new installs. There is no change, and no action is required for any site already using the PayPal Standard gateway.
If you want to switch from PayPal Standard to PayPal Payments, here’s a helpful guide on how to do that:

Hi there!
I also wanted to share a bit more clarification. While PayPal Standard will remain available for existing stores, it does have some limitations, and support for it is increasingly limited. Because of this, we strongly encourage store owners to consider switching to the PayPal Payments extension.
PayPal Payments offers several advantages, including:
- A wider range of payment methods (PayPal, credit/debit cards, and many local payment options).
- Most payment options don’t require customers to have a PayPal account.
- Full support for automatic recurring payments—great if you’re using WooCommerce Subscriptions or similar plugins.
- Enhanced security features such as PCI compliance and two-factor authentication via 3DS.
While you can continue using PayPal Standard, moving to PayPal Payments ensures better compatibility, more features, and stronger future support.
Thank you
