Braintree Payments

See documentation on Braintree Payments for other help topics. 


Your ecommerce site can offer and manage PayPal checkout and express options within Braintree Payments. With this option, PayPal payments are available under the Braintree tab during checkout and PayPal Express is controlled through Braintree settings.  All PayPal transactions processed through the Braintree gateway will be integrated in your Braintree Control Panel.


NOTE - You will still need to establish a PayPal merchant account separately as payment processing fees will be charged by PayPal. Braintree does not charge fees for handling PayPal transactions.

PayPal in Braintree Payments

When PayPal is controlled in Braintree Payments settings, one or all of these PayPal options can be enabled on your site:

  • PayPal under the Braintree Payments 'Payment Methods' tab during the checkout process.  NOTE - For PayPal checkout, vaulting can be enabled to save the PayPal account details for future use without requiring re-authenticating with PayPal. Vaulting is not compatible with Pay in 4. If it is enabled, once logged into PayPal, Pay in 4 will not be offered as an option to a logged in registered user.  

    1, In the Payment panel during checkout, PayPal displays as a payment option under Braintree's Payment Methods tab.

     

    2. When the user selects PayPal, the PayPal button is displayed. 

    3. The user clicks the PayPal button for the secure PayPal login window. 

    4. The user logs into their PayPal account and selects from available payment options. After payment selection has been approved, they are returned to your website. The PayPal account with login ID is displayed. 

    5. The user clicks Process Payment to complete payment. If 'Allow Vault PayPal' is enabled, a successful PayPal account will be vaulted ready for future purchases.  

  • PayPal Express options. These PayPal payment methods are accessed via buttons on the product and cart pages. They are 'express' because the customer can log in to PayPal immediately to pay without adding to cart and going through the usual checkout process steps. Choose one or both Express options:  PayPal Checkout, Pay in 4 (PayPal's Buy Now, Pay Later). 

    NOTE - Adding PayPal Express checkout through Braintree settings disables the use of separate PayPal Express settings
