Shopping Cart > Payment Processing

PayPal Standard – Limited to PayPal Authorized Countries & Currencies

PayPal processing is fully integrated with our shopping cart. Your site will collect and store order details, including which products were bought, the billing info and shipping info. On checkout, the shopping cart will automatically collect the necessary info and process it to PayPal on your behalf.

When paying with PayPal, your customers will be able to:

  1. Use their existing PayPal account to pay you through the account or by eCheck.
  2. Create a new PayPal account and then pay you.
  3. Pay with their credit card or create a temporary PayPal account. This option is only available to them if you have a US-based PayPal Business or Premiere Account.

PayPal can also be used as an option with Authorize.net, PSIGate, SecurePay.com.au or Manual Processing so customers can choose to pay by credit card or PayPal.

You need to have an account with PayPal to set up PayPal Standard with your shopping cart. If you do not already have a PayPal account, visit www.paypal.com to create one.

NOTE: PayPal charges processing fees per transaction, to learn more about their fees go to PayPal Fees.

 

To set up PayPal Standard with your Shopping Cart:

  1. Click the 'Edit Store' tab.
  2. Click 'Payment Processing' on the left.
  3. If you would like to be notified via email every time an order is received, enter your email address under Email Notification.

IMPORTANT: This is the same email address used to send out order confirmation emails to your customers after they pay for their goods and services.

You received an order on this website:

www.retroretail.CitySlide.comTo view your order, click the link below:

https://secure.systemsecure.com/store/orders/421.htm

NOTE: If you have your own domain name, in your email notification you actually see the web address where you do all your editing.

  1. Enter your payment restrictions.

  1. Skip the 'Online Additional Security' option. It does not apply to PayPal Standard.

  1. Mark off 'PayPal Website Payments Standard' and then enter the email address you used to sign up for PayPal.

  1. You can provide your customers with Offline Payment Options, including orders/payments by mail, email, telephone, or fax. Offline payment options do not work like online payment options and are NOT tracked within the shopping cart. Orders through offline payment methods will be submitted directly to you. You will then have to track and process the orders manually yourself, as order information will not be stored on your website. Also, these orders will not be reflected in the inventory management on your website.

    If you decide to provide offline payment options, fill out the boxes provided. If you choose to accept checks or money orders, fill out the box provided with the name and address you would like the check/money order made out to.

    NOTE: Online payment options offer greater security to your customers than offline options. Your customers may be hesitant to provide credit card information, etc. through offline payment methods.

If you choose to provide offline payment options, they will show at the top of the payment page. Below is an example of where the options appear.

  1. Click on the 'Save' button to save all your settings.
