I am trying to implement an advanced paypal checkout, everything works fine when trying the advanced paypal example here. I used my own client id and secret to do so, and it also worked, but when trying to implement the same code in my laravel app, it throws this error:

PayPal Hosted Fields is not eligible.

caused by this code:

if (paypal.HostedFields && **paypal.HostedFields.isEligible()**) {  // <-------- this line
        // Renders card fields
        paypal.HostedFields.render({
            // Call your server to set up the transaction
            ...
        }).then((card_fields) => {
            ....
        });
} else {
        console.log("PayPal Hosted Fields is not eligible.");
}

when I ran through their tutorial I found that this Advanced Checkout feature is not available in all countries, what was missing is enabling Advanced Credit and Debit Card Payments checkbox which was missing from my app. I believe that is because I the account is from a country that is not supported for advanced checkout. I wanted to make sure that this is the problem and not something in my code, can someone help me?

EDIT:

I also tried someone else’s account and had the same issue. also tried a new account and same problem
