PayPal

PayPal lets customers pay with a familiar wallet option while Plandalf keeps the offer, checkout, coupon, bump, invoice, and automation context in one flow.

Note. Use PayPal for payment choice PayPal is a payment option for the checkout. Keep the offer structure, products, prices, redirects, and follow-up workflow in Plandalf.

The path

  1. Connect PayPal

    Open the PayPal integration from the dashboard and authorize the PayPal Business account that should process payments.

  2. Choose where PayPal appears

    Add PayPal to the offers where customers should see it as a payment method.

  3. Test the checkout path

    Connect the sandbox environment and complete an approved sandbox payment. Also cancel at the provider, return to checkout, and confirm the invoice and fulfilment state. Previewing a button is not payment verification.

  4. Route completion normally

    After payment, keep using Plandalf redirects, events, webhooks, and Sequences for the next step.

When PayPal helps

  • International buyers — Give customers another familiar payment option when card preference varies by market.

  • Checkout trust — Let buyers use a wallet they already recognize while the checkout stays inside your offer flow.

  • Campaign pages — Use PayPal on a focused offer without rebuilding the page or moving the campaign into another checkout tool.

  • Offer automation — Keep post-purchase work tied to Plandalf events and purchase context.

What to configure

PayPal setup

  • Account (PayPal Business account): The connected account that should process PayPal payments.

  • Offer availability (offer setting): Which checkouts should show PayPal as an available payment option.

  • Fallback payment method (payment option): Keep card payment available when the offer should support both card and wallet buyers.

  • Completion behavior (redirect | event | webhook): Use the same Plandalf completion path after PayPal payment as you use after card checkout.

Warning. Do not split the offer across tools Avoid sending PayPal buyers through a separate product page or manual checkout path. The goal is one offer flow with multiple payment options.

  • Hosted checkout — Publish a Plandalf-hosted payment page with the right payment methods.

  • Buy buttons — Open the same offer from a marketing page or campaign link.

  • Stripe — Use Stripe for card-first checkout and Stripe-backed product/price workflows.
