PayPal Payment Gateway
Accept payments through PayPal, trusted by over 400 million users worldwide. Express Checkout, multi-currency support, and buyer protection built in.
The Payment Method Your Customers Already Trust
PayPal is one of the most recognized and trusted payment brands in the world. With over 400 million active accounts across 200+ markets, adding PayPal to your checkout gives customers the confidence to complete their purchase. The Larapen PayPal add-on integrates directly with PayPal's REST API, providing Express Checkout buttons, smart payment options, and a streamlined payment experience that reduces cart abandonment and increases conversions.
Buyer Protection That Builds Confidence
PayPal's Buyer Protection program covers eligible purchases, giving your customers peace of mind when they shop on your platform. If an item doesn't arrive or doesn't match the description, PayPal helps resolve the issue. This layer of protection encourages first-time buyers to take the leap and returning customers to buy with confidence, translating directly into higher sales volume and stronger customer loyalty.
Comprehensive PayPal Integration
Express Checkout
One-click PayPal checkout buttons that let customers pay without leaving your site. Reduces friction and speeds up the payment process for returning PayPal users.
REST API Integration
Built on PayPal's modern REST API v2 for reliable order creation, capture, and management. Clean, well-documented endpoints ensure long-term maintainability.
Webhook Events
Automatic processing of PayPal webhook events for payment completion, refunds, disputes, and chargebacks. Never miss a transaction status change.
Easy Refunds
Issue full or partial refunds from your admin panel with a single click. PayPal returns the funds to the buyer's account or original payment source automatically.
Multi-Currency Support
Accept payments in 25+ currencies with automatic currency conversion. Customers see prices and pay in their preferred currency, while you receive funds in yours.
Buyer Protection
