How to Accept Payments with PayPal Checkout in WordPress

Take PayPal and card payments directly from your forms

PayPal Checkout for WS Form lets you accept PayPal or credit card payments from your forms in WordPress. You can charge a fixed amount with the button on its own, or use WS Form e-commerce fields for more advanced cart options.

The PayPal Checkout button uses PayPal’s latest client-side payment process. When a transaction is completed, WS Form stores the transaction ID with the form submission.

You can configure billing and shipping address mapping, pre-populate payer details, and map transaction breakdown values such as subtotal, shipping, tax, handling fee, shipping discount, insurance, and gift wrap. The payment page must be served over HTTPS.
