Take a PayPal payment today.
One shortcode puts a payment form anywhere on your WordPress site. All it needs is your PayPal email address, so you can be taking money in a few minutes, with no business account, no API keys and no developer. Unlimited forms, any currency PayPal accepts, and every label and colour is yours to change.
What the free version does
- Unlimited payment forms, placed with a shortcode, a block or a widget
- Any currency PayPal accepts
- Charge one set price, or let the buyer type the amount
- Quantity, item number, and a list of options to pick from
- Name, email, postal address and phone number, if you want to collect them
- Your own message field, terms and conditions, a consent tick box and a maths captcha
- Change every label, caption and colour, or leave the defaults alone
- A record of every payment, with a CSV download
- Mark a payment as paid by hand once you have checked it in PayPal
- Multi-language and GDPR ready
A personal PayPal account is enough. There is nothing to configure beyond your email address.
What the paid version adds
The paid version is about getting your time back and selling more than one thing.
Payments confirm themselves. PayPal tells your site the moment a payment clears, so orders mark themselves paid and you stop opening PayPal to check whether one went through. Your buyer gets an automatic thank you email, and you can create their WordPress account at the same time, in whichever role you choose.
Take card payments as well as PayPal. Send buyers to Stripe instead and take cards directly, on a page hosted by Stripe so no card details touch your site. Some people will not pay through PayPal, and that is the reason they abandon a payment.
Sell properly rather than just collect money. Offer a choice of prices on one form, a slider, or a set of pre-set references. Run coupon codes with percentage or fixed discounts, expiry dates and limited quantities. Add postage and handling as a fixed amount or a percentage. Set a minimum amount, or switch the form to donations.
