We are having the same problem. Our web site is also with Go Daddy but we have no restrictions on our account that I am aware of.

I'm having the same problem and my website is also with GoDaddy and I have no restrictions on my site. I found a thread that states PayPal was aware 5 years ago that their Pay Now type buttons don't always play well with Chrome. It also state they are aware of the problem - but that was so long ago that it doesn't explain why it's happening now. Like others, I am losing income and do not relish the idea of having to tell my customers to try another browser. Every consumer should be able to use the browser of their choice and make a purchase using PayPal.
I hope PayPal monitors these chats and addresses the issue. If their paychecks depended upon a similar process I bet they'd get it working!

The first line of the PayPal button HTML code reads: target=”_top”. I changed the word “top” to “blank”. So the result is now: target=”_blank” and it works on all browsers, both desktop and mobile.
