You don't need a PayPal account to pay with your Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover card at 194 Craft House. When you check out through PayPal, choose Pay with Debit or Credit Card and pay as a guest in about a minute.
This guide walks you through each step, so your personalized gift is on its way without any hassle.
Why pay by card through PayPal?
- Your card details stay private. PayPal processes the payment, so 194 Craft House never sees your full card number.
- No account or password needed. Check out as a guest and skip the sign-up.
- Major cards accepted. Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover and Diners Club all work.
- Refunds go back to your card. If a refund is ever issued, it returns to the same card you paid with.
How to check out with your card, step by step
Step 1: Add your gift to the cart
Type your personalization (names, dates, engraving text), then click Add to cart.
Step 2: Go to checkout
In the cart pop-up, double-check your personalization and click Check out.
Step 3: Enter your details and click Pay now
Add your email and shipping address, then pick a shipping method. Use an email you check often — your order confirmation and shipping updates go there. Under Payment, PayPal is already selected. Click the blue Pay now button. Nothing is charged yet — this only opens PayPal.
A PayPal window opens on top of the checkout. If you don't see it, check behind your browser window or allow pop-ups for 194crafthouse.com.
Step 4: Choose "Pay with Debit or Credit Card"
In the PayPal window, skip the login box. Click Pay with Debit or Credit Card below it.
Step 5: Check out as a guest
Type your email address, then click Continue to Payment. No PayPal account needed.
Step 6: Enter your card and billing address
Add your phone number, card number, expiration date and CVV (the 3–4 digit security code). Then fill in your billing address — it must match what your bank has on file.
Step 7: Switch off account sign-up and continue as a guest
PayPal turns on Save info & create your PayPal account by default, which asks you to create a password. If you don't want an account, tap the switch to turn it off. The button changes to Continue as Guest — click it.
Step 8: Finish your order and check your inbox
PayPal returns you to 194 Craft House. Review your order and complete it if asked. You'll then get an order confirmation from 194 Craft House and a payment receipt from PayPal. Keep the PayPal receipt — it has your transaction ID.
Troubleshooting and FAQ
I don't see the "Pay with Debit or Credit Card" option.
PayPal doesn't show guest checkout to every shopper every time. Try clearing your browser's cookies and cache, logging out of any PayPal session, or using a private/incognito window. On mobile, try a different browser.
My card was declined.
Check the card number, expiration date, CVV and billing address — the billing address must match what your bank has on file. If your card is already linked to a PayPal account (even an old one), PayPal may ask you to log in to that account instead.
The PayPal window didn't open.
Your browser may be blocking pop-ups. Allow pop-ups for 194crafthouse.com, or check whether the window opened behind your main browser window.
Do I have to create a PayPal account?
No. On the card form, PayPal's "Save info & create your PayPal account" switch is on by default. Turn it off and click Continue as Guest.
Is my payment secure?
Yes. Your card details are entered on PayPal's secure page, not on our site.
How do refunds work?
Refunds go back to the card you paid with. Depending on your bank, they can take several business days to show on your statement.
