Step by step guide on PayPal Checkout integration

PayPal Checkout is using the shipping and billing information from your client’s PayPal account. This will make the payment process an easy experience.

To enable PayPal Checkout integration, follow the simple steps below:

1. Go to Settings → Payments in your 123FormBuilder account. In the Payment Processors section, click on the Payment gateway dropdown, select Paypal Checkout and hit Add payment gateway.

2. Provide your PayPal Checkout Client ID. Where to find your PayPal Client ID ?

• First, login here: https://developer.paypal.com/
• Access your applications page: https://developer.paypal.com/developer/applications/
• In the My Apps & Credentials section click on your app. If you do not have one click on Create App.

• Click on your app and you will see the API credentials listed. Copy the Client ID ( it is 80 characters long). At Settings from the bottom you should have ticked the Accept payments option

3. Finally, paste your Client ID in the integration.

4. If you want to send additional information to the transaction page, hit the Customize button and match form fields with PayPal fields in the lightbox that appears on screen.

A big advantage is that Paypal Checkout allows you to accept payments directly on your online order form, without redirecting away from the page.
