Magento – Magento 2: How to remove Paypal Logo from MiniCart & Shopping Cart Page

Easy enough. All you need to do is remove the block that is inserted via the paypal.xml You can do this via your custom theme local.xml file located in your layout folder.

Thus if you look at /app/design/frontend/base/default/layout/paypal.xml you will find the directive that places that link in this block:

<default>
        <reference name="topCart.extra_actions">
            <block type="paypal/express_shortcut" name="paypal.partner.top_cart.shortcut" template="paypal/express/shortcut.phtml"/>
        </reference>
        <reference name="cart_sidebar.extra_actions">
            <block type="paypal/express_shortcut" name="paypal.partner.cart_sidebar.shortcut" template="paypal/express/shortcut.phtml"/>
        </reference>
    </default>

Thus to remove, in your local.xml theme file you can place:

<default>
    <!-- remove from top cart -->
    <reference name="topCart.extra_actions">
        <remove name="paypal.partner.top_cart.shortcut"/>
    </reference>
    <!-- remove from sidebar -->
    <reference name="cart_sidebar.extra_actions">
        <remove name="paypal.partner.cart_sidebar.shortcut"/>
    </reference>
</default>

Check that you have the following xml in your paypal.xml layout:

<checkout_cart_index>
    <reference name="checkout.cart.top_methods">
        <block type="paypal/express_shortcut" name="checkout.cart.methods.paypal_express.top" before="checkout.cart.methods.onepage.top" template="paypal/express/shortcut.phtml">
            <action method="setIsQuoteAllowed"><value>1</value></action>
            <action method="setShowOrPosition"><value>after</value></action>
        </block>
    </reference>

    <reference name="checkout.cart.methods">
        <block type="paypal/express_shortcut" name="checkout.cart.methods.paypal_express.bottom" before="checkout.cart.methods.onepage.bottom" template="paypal/express/shortcut.phtml">
            <action method="setIsQuoteAllowed"><value>1</value></action>
            <action method="setShowOrPosition"><value>after</value></action>
        </block>
    </reference>

    <update handle="SHORTCUT_popup" />
</checkout_cart_index>

Also make sure you clear Magento cache so that the changes can reflect.

If that doesn't work, enable Magento logging and go to the cart page. If it does not display, check exception.log for any Paypal gateway issues.
