Add PayPal at checkout

Online stores are an add-on. If your site doesn't have one yet, ask us about adding it; we quote it in writing first.

Some customers would rather pay with PayPal than type in a card number. Connect your own PayPal account and it shows as a choice at checkout.

Pick the PayPal option you want

• Express checkout. The customer goes to PayPal, signs in, approves the payment and comes back to your store. It works alongside any other way of paying you offer.
• PayPal Advanced Credit Card Payments + Express Checkout. Customers can use express checkout or pay by card without leaving your site. It is only available in some countries, and only for people who already have a PayPal Business account. Check with PayPal that yours qualifies.

Connect PayPal

1. Log in to your site editor.
2. In the side panel, click Store, then Business Settings.
3. Click Payments.
4. Click Connect Account next to the PayPal option you want.
5. Follow the prompts to sign in to your PayPal account. You sign in yourself on PayPal's own screen, and we never ask for or see your password.
6. Look for the green connected badge on the Payment Gateways screen.

Test it

PayPal doesn't show while your site is in preview. Test it on the live site by placing a small order of your own. Then look for it under Store, Sales, Orders. See Find and manage your orders.

Good to know

• Orders paid through PayPal can be refunded from the store with Refund Order. See Refund or cancel an order.
• Check PayPal's own pages for any fees they charge.
• Want a PayPal button on a page that isn't part of your store? See Add a PayPal button to any page.

Need a hand?

If your site doesn't have this yet, ask us about adding it. We quote it in writing first, and nothing is billed unless you approve. Email hello@zossoz.com.

Connecting needs you to sign in to your own PayPal account, so we can't do that step for you. If the Connect Account button is missing or something goes wrong, email hello@zossoz.com with your business name and what you see, and we'll look into it. We reply within one business day. See Request a change.
