A free PayPal payment plugin for WordPress websites

WordPress PayPal is a free, open-source plugin that allows you to add PayPal checkout buttons and other PayPal options to your website. You can add buttons via shortcode instead of a design tool.

The purpose of this shopping cart plugin is to help you collect payments from customers who want to buy from your website. Its functions are similar to other plugins, Sleek Bill and PayPal Here.

How do I set up WordPress PayPal?

Setting up WordPress PayPal is as easy as finding the PayPal plugin. After locating it, download and install it on your WordPress website like you would with any other plugin.

How much does it cost to use WordPress PayPal?

There is no additional charge to use PayPal in general on your website. This plugin is entirely free to use. PayPal charges transactional fees, but those are unrelated to this program and are based on your account.

Is it safe to use WordPress PayPal?

PayPal did not build this plugin, so it doesn’t offer official PayPal security features. However, it is an open-source program, so you can search through and look for anything that looks suspicious. As long as you have SSL, your users remain protected.

A translation of PayPal’s code

There are already pieces of code that allow you to integrate PayPal buttons or add shopping cart functions to your website. However, this plugin makes it much more simple to create and add those code snippets.

A simple yet effective PayPal tool

You need a PayPal business account to use the Buy Now plugin correctly. However, PayPal doesn’t charge fees for opening business accounts. Otherwise, this plugin is a simple yet effective solution for e-tailers who want to offer PayPal on their WordPress website.
