Thank you for letting us know, it looks like this is specific to not requiring a billing address for purchases. We're testing a fix and we'll provide an update shortly.

A fix is now available for this issue in new downloads of 4.7.9 and for those already on 4.7.9, it can be obtained from the AdminCP > support page in the top left box.

Those potentially affected will also see an AdminCP notification asking them to apply the patch
