This guide covers the implementation of PayPal Express checkout on BPD websites. 

Info
titlePrerequisite

In order to offer PayPal as a payment option to your customers, you must allow them to pay by credit card. Each customer account has a 'Credit Card Payments for Orders' flag, which must be set to 'Yes' in order for PayPal to work.

If the Customer Maintenance page shown below isn't visible to you in the CMS, please let us know. We can also update customers in bulk for you if required.
