Checkout for PayPal

აღწერა

Your customers will be able to pay for your products using PayPal, Pay Later or Credit Card. All you need to do is insert a shortcode into one of your web pages and your website will be ready to go live.

How Does Checkout for PayPal Work?

Checkout for PayPal uses PayPal REST API to add smart payment buttons to your website. To Generate REST API credentials for the sandbox and live environments:

• Log in to the PayPal Developer Dashboard with your PayPal account credentials.
• On My Apps & Credentials, use the toggle to switch between live and sandbox testing apps (If you are creating a Sandbox app, you will also need to select a test business account that will act as the API caller).
• Navigate to the REST API apps section and click Create App.
• Type a name for your app and click Create App. The app details page opens and displays your credentials.
• Copy and save the client ID and secret for your app.
• Review your app details and save your app.

Once the plugin is installed go to the settings menu to configure some default options (Checkout for PayPal -> Settings).

• Client ID: The client ID for your PayPal REST API app
• Currency Code: The default currency of the payment
• Return URL: The page URL to which the customer will be redirected after a successful payment.

In order to create a smart payment button insert the shortcode like the following:

[checkout_for_paypal item_description="My cool product" amount="1.00"]

Replace the values with your item description and amount.
