PayPal
You can start by placing a ‘PayPal’ button next to other payment methods you process in your webshop. With clicking on this button, you construct a Sale (or PreAuth) transaction request to our Gateway. This will take your customers to our hosted payment page, where PayPal JS Smart Buttons are rendered. After being redirected to the wallet login page, the cardholders can proceed with payment completion.
Alternatively, you can let your customer select the payment method on the Gateway’s hosted payment method selection page. If you prefer this option, please do not submit a value for the payment method parameter in your payment request.
In addition to mandatory fields, it is also recommended to include PayPal specific fields, as listed below.
