PayPal

Set up your PayPal account to use for storefront checkout and over the API

Configure PayPal

PayPal is a payment method offering a variety of payment features both in the storefront checkout and for orders created over the Admin and Campaigns APIs.

• From Settings > Payments

• Select PayPal Express Checkout and click on Activate PayPal.

• Choose Connect PayPal Account to link your PayPal account with an automated flow.

• Optionally, choose Add Manual Account to connect your PayPal REST API credentials manually to your store.

29 Next supports the use of multiple PayPal accounts in a single store. The Default account will be used for storefront checkouts, but over the Admin API you can designate a PayPal account ID to use for external checkout flows.

PayPal Optional Features

For testing purposes, it's recommended to create a PayPal account with “Environment” set to Sandbox, and a second account with the "Live" production credentials. When you’re ready to accept live transactions, be sure to switch the “Live” environment to your default.

29 Next supports automated uploading of shipment carrier and tracking number information to PayPal for PayPal orders. Uploading tracking data to PayPal is recommended to minimize the risk of disputes and provide the best customer service to PayPal buyers.
