PayPal Payment Module

In order to use PayPal as your payment solution, you must have a PayPal account. Signing up is really simple via the PayPal web site. Once you have signed up, you need to verify your account and upgrade to a Premier or Business Account depending on the service you wish to use. Consult the appropriate documentation and customer service on their website.

We suggest to install the PayPal module on your PrintShop Mail Web server and familiarize yourself with its functionalities using the PayPal sandbox (a test environment facilitated by PayPal).

The following sections will guide you through this process and explain how to configure the module.

Why use PayPal?

PayPal is an easy, cheap way for you to deliver secure checkout to your customers. You can accept credit card payments, eChecks, and PayPal transfers from the millions of people already signed up to use PayPal. There is even a service that lets your customers who do not have PayPal accounts pay by credit card through the PayPal server. PayPal is a great payment solution for small businesses and is a good option for larger ones, too. It's fast, easy, and secure.

PayPal payments are immediate and accepted worldwide. The PayPal module for PrintShop Mail Web integrates PayPal Website Payments Standard. In the PrintShop Mail Web checkout process customers are redirected to PayPal after reviewing their order to complete payment; they return to your PrintShop Mail Web site once payment is completed.
