Paypal currency issue (Case # 12117471)

Issue

The pay later feature errors for currencies which are not the default currency in the paypal account. For our PP accounts, there's an error on rendering the components when the currency is not GBP. We found the "Invalid option value" occurs on the messaging component.

Our first release will only include the messaging, then we'll be showing a pay later button.
