If enabled, PayPal settings in Braintree Payments settings control the PayPal options your website offers. Your site can include one or all of these PayPal options:

• PayPal Checkout under the Braintree Payments 'Payment Methods' tab during the checkout process.  Vaulting can be enabled to save the PayPal account details for future use without requiring your customer to be present during the transaction or to re-authenticate with PayPal. NOTE - Vaulting is not compatible with Pay in 4. If it is enabled, Pay in 4 will not display to the customer.

If 'Allow Vault PayPal' is enabled, a successful PayPal account will be vaulted for future purchases.

  
  

• PayPal Express options. These are PayPal payment methods that appear via buttons on the product and/or cart pages. They are 'express' because they allow the customer to submit their order there and then without going through the usual checkout process. Express options include PayPal Checkout and Pay in 4 (PayPal's Buy Now, Pay Later). 

  NOTE - Adding PayPal Express through Braintree settings replaces the use of separate PayPal Express settings.
