- There are several WordPress plugins that offer PayPal integration. The most popular one is the WooCommerce PayPal Checkout Payment Gateway, which currently has over 700,000 active installations and can be used to securely complete checkout for your products and subscriptions.
- Creating a WordPress form with PayPal as the payment option is actually the easiest way to accept payments in WordPress. You can create a form where the customers can choose the products to purchase. And, integrating PayPal to payment forms will make the transactions safer for the users. It may sound complicated right now, but don’t worry!
- Simple WordPress PayPal Shopping Cart offers you a straightforward option to add an “Add to Cart” button to your website for the products that you want to sell. This is a lightweight plugin. Once it is installed, you can easily include the button on your posts or pages you want.
Go to PayPal.com, compose and save your “buttons” following their instructions. You can then select the specific button you want into your WP page using the Elementor Plug-In. Go to www.yourwebsite.com/wp-admin to open up your website to work on it. PayPal is arguably the largest online payment gateway, enabling you to send and receive money almost anywhere. Integrating it into your WordPress website offers even more functionality, as you can receive payments for your products and services directly from your site.
