Disappointed: Core gateways like PayPal are now paid add-ons
« on: October 01, 2025, 03:21:34 PM »
Hello,
I am writing to express my strong disappointment with the recent update to the Osclass Pay plugin.
After updating, I was shocked to see that essential payment gateways, including PayPal, have been removed from the core plugin and are now being sold as separate paid add--ons.
This feels very unfair to users who chose your product based on the features it included. Forcing us to now pay for functionality that was previously a standard part of the plugin is a poor business practice and breaks the trust we had in your product.
I understand the need for a sustainable business model, but making a fundamental gateway like PayPal a paid feature is a step too far

It's not recent and it was clearly shared around

Update notes:

4.1.0 Major Update! Read Carefuly:
Payment gateway integrations were removed from plugin and now provided as standalone plugins!
Only bank transfer, wallet pay and admin pay are now included in plugin.
Consider before update - you may need to purchase payment gateway integration as extension of Osclass Pay Plugin.
If you are satisfied with plugin you have and not willing to buy gateway extensions, stay at v4.0.4
Most of new gateway integrations those can be found as standalone plugins, now use latest api/sdk versions.
Enhanced debug features those can be enabled in index.php in case of problems - now by default stored in oc-content/osclass_pay.debug.log file, including very detail data received from gateway.

It unlocked us to build less popular, local as well as integration heavy gateways (composer requirements) and reduce security impacts from integrations not really used by users.
Paypal gateway was always paid, but it was included in higher price of original product.
No one stops you to use current version with all gateways those were part of plugin before 4.1 version release, decission is on you.
  To get fast support, we need following details: Detail description, URL to reproduce problem, Screenshots
