To be honest, I have never bought anything from Spreadshirt and I didn’t even know that you could pay with Paypal but apparently you can’t anymore.

Update from Spreadshirt: PayPal is still available in the US and Canada, both hosted on spreadshirt.com, and Poland, hosted on spreadshirt.net, or spreadshirt.pl. (Covered in the blog post.) You linked this article to Spreadshirt.com, which does accept PayPal.

It seems that there was some trouble with Paypal recently and also they feel that they may make more sales without it. This may be a temporary situation but they have removed it indefinitely which does not bide well for people who want Paypal.

Here is the information from their blog.

Due to the fact that there have been problems with PayPal orders in the past, we decided to test the differences with or without PayPal in the checkout over the past few weeks. Our results have shown that most of our customers simply choose another payment method when PayPal isn’t offered. Comparatively, more customers abandon their order when we offer PayPal. Obviously, this isn’t in our best interests and needs more investigation.
Since the amount of PayPal orders is less than 10% and, as mentioned above, customers use other payment methods when PayPal wasn’t offered, we decided to shut down PayPal for customers in the checkout today. This affects all markets except for Canada, Poland and the United States.

We’d love to add Paypal again, since we still believe in the simplicity and convenience of this payment method, and we also think that our customers should be able to use their preferred payment from a variety of options.

We will investigate this further, but I can’t give you a solid timeframe, as making changes in the checkout (the most sensitive area in eCommerce) are very time consuming processes.

Recently Zazzle introduced Paypal as an option for shoppers. I wonder how they feel about it. I believe also in the past PayPal was an option at Cafepress too but was removed.
