How PayPal Works

PayPal acts as an intermediary between online merchants and customers. It enables customers to pay using methods like credit cards, debit cards, or their PayPal balance.

So, when a customer completes a payment, PayPal works with the customer’s bank to collect the money. Then, it transfers the money to the merchant’s account.

PayPal Payment Gateway Fees

You don’t need to pay recurring subscription fees to accept payments through PayPal. Instead, PayPal charges a fee whenever a merchant receives payment:

PayPal Checkout: 3.49% + a fixed fee based on currency received

Standard debit and credit payments: 2.99% + fixed fee

Pay with Venmo: 3.49% + fixed fee

Alternate payment methods (like Apple Pay or Google Pay): 2.59% + fixed fee

Note: PayPal charges an additional 1.5% fee on international transactions.

Using PayPal on WordPress To Accept Payments

You have multiple options to integrate PayPal into your WordPress website.

PayPal Payments Standard

PayPal payments standard lets you create simple payment buttons for your WordPress website. PayPal generates an HTML code for your payment button, and then you just need to embed the code on your website.

PayPal payment buttons are simple to create, but they’re only useful if your requirements are simple. They don’t support advanced customization options or multiple payment plans.
