Accept payments through PayPal, trusted by over 400 million users worldwide. Express Checkout, multi-currency support, and buyer protection.

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: PayPal's Buyer Protection covers eligible purchases, giving customers confidence to buy. This trust factor often leads to higher conversion rates compared to card-only checkouts.

How It Works

  1. Connect Your PayPal Account: Install the PayPal add-on and enter your PayPal business account credentials: Client ID and Secret from the PayPal Developer Dashboard. Enable sandbox mode for testing.
  2. Configure Checkout Options: Choose your preferred checkout style: Express Checkout buttons, standard payment flow, or both. Set your default currency and configure webhook URLs for real-time notifications.
  3. Accept Payments Instantly: Your PayPal checkout is live. Customers can pay using their PayPal balance, linked bank account, or credit/debit card through PayPal. All transactions are tracked in your admin panel.
