Connect is for if you are working as a platform using our product Stripe Connect. If that applies to you, do turn PayPal on there, otherwise the settings for your account are the ones to use

What country is your account in? PayPal through Stripe is only available in certain countries https://stripe.com/docs/payments/paypal

#

Under the "Country availability" section

Unfortunately we don't support PayPal for accounts in the US, even if the customers are elsewhere

is there any work around for this?

#

So unfortunately you would need a separate Stripe account in another country to be able to support this and you'd need to handle extra complexity in managing the funds between the accounts because payments and funds would each belong to their own account

#

That is actually a use case for Stripe Connect, make another account and connect it to your current account, then the platform can make PaymentIntents and such through the connected account

#

Though again, extra complexity, so it depends on how much supporting this is worth compared to development costs
