Help & Support

PayPal processing is fully integrated with our shopping cart. Your site will collect and store order details, including which products were bought, the billing info and shipping info. On checkout, the shopping cart will automatically collect the necessary info and process it to PayPal on your behalf.

When paying with PayPal, your customers will be able to:

1. Use their existing PayPal account to pay you through the account or by eCheck.
2. Create a new PayPal account and then pay you.
3. Pay with their credit card or create a temporary PayPal account. This option is only available to them if you have a US-based PayPal Business or Premiere Account.

PayPal can also be used as an option along with Authorize.net, PSIGate, SecurePay.com.au or Manual Processing so that customers can choose to pay by credit card or PayPal.

You need to have an account with PayPal to set up PayPal Standard with your shopping cart. If you do not already have a PayPal account, visit www.paypal.com to create one.

PayPal charges processing fees per transaction, to learn more about their fees go to PayPal Fees.
