 * was happily & productively using PayPal Checkout Gateway when i foolishly upgraded
   to PayPal Payments as advised by WooCommerce.
    Immediately got the whitescreen
   of death, with Critical Error Message! clients also were getting 422 Unprocessable
   Entity Error code. Have since reverted back to Checkout Gateway until this is
   fixed.

 * Hi [@frockman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/frockman/),
 * That doesn’t sound good, apologies for the trouble.
 * The PayPal Checkout plugin will continue to work for a little while and can be
   used if PayPal Payments, for some reason, does not work for you.
 * Do you still have access to the error message? We would like to look into what
   caused this behavior for you.
    You can reach our support from [the support forums](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce-paypal-payments/),
   or from [our own support system](https://paypal.inpsyde.com/docs/request-support/)
   if you’d like to share more details like log files privately with us. Thanks!
 * Kind regards,
    Niklas

 * Hi Niklas
 * PayPal CHECKOUT is working fine thankfully, so I’m gonna stick with it as long
   as I can.
 * The error message my customers were getting with **PAYMENTS** was,
 * [UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY] The requested action could not be performed, semantically
   incorrect, or failed business validation. [https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/orders/v2/#error-MISSING_SHIPPING_ADDRESS](https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/orders/v2/#error-MISSING_SHIPPING_ADDRESS)

 * Hi [@frockman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/frockman/),
 * I see, thanks for the clarification. This appears to be related to an issue that
   was resolved for our upcoming plugin update:
    [https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-paypal-payments/issues/330](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-paypal-payments/issues/330)
   This error can currently occur when the zip code is optional for the billing 
   country. As your business is located in Ireland, it’s obviously quite a drastic
   problem that makes the plugin unusable for you. Update 1.6.0 was already supposed
   to resolve the issue, but there was a bug that caused the fix to only partially
   apply. With the next update, the issue should be resolved entirely.
 * If you are interested in giving the fixed version a try, you can send us a message
   from here and we will gladly provide a preview version: [https://paypal.inpsyde.com/docs/request-support/](https://paypal.inpsyde.com/docs/request-support/)
 * But the PayPal Checkout plugin will remain available and supported until around
   March 2022. It should even work for a while longer after that, but at that point,
   only PayPal Payments would be officially supported.
    Unless you are interested
   in the new features such as Pay Later, PayPal Card Processing, or Vaulting, there
   is no necessity to switch to PayPal Payments quite yet.
 * For any further questions, feel free to reach out anytime. Feedback is always
   appreciated so we can improve the plugin where it’s needed the most.
 * Kind regards,
    Niklas
