PhotoBiz ECommerce integrates with PayPal as a merchant for you to accept credit/debit card payments for your Proofing, Scheduler, Invoicing, Forms, and Store. This guide will walk you through the steps of setting up your PayPal account as one of your payment methods in your eCommerce control panel.
STEP 1
Log into your PhotoBiz account and access the ECommerce section of your control panel.
STEP 2
Mouse over to payment and click merchants.
STEP 3
Click on the new merchant button.
Stripe is the default merchant type, but you can change to PayPal by clicking the drop down and choosing PayPal.
Choose PayPal and complete the required fields to add your PayPal account information.
- Payment Name - Best practice is to put Pay by PayPal
- PayPal Email - Your PayPal email address
- Active For - Choose which portions of your PhotoBiz account PayPal is available to use for payment processing.
- Special Instructions - Add special instructions advising your customers that they'll be re-directed to a PayPal check out screen separate from your website to complete the payment for their orders. This will help clients understand that they will need to enter their card information into the PayPal check out screen instead of your PhotoBiz check out screen.
- Thank You Message - Use this section to put in a Thank You message to your customer that will display once they've completed their payment and are re-directed back to your PhotoBiz check out for confirmation that their payment has been received. This will also appear on the receipt for your customer's order.
Click The ADD MERCHANT button to make PayPal active as your merchant.
Your customers will now be able to check out and submit their orders and then pay for their orders via PayPal. Any refunds that need to be issued for payments processed through Paypal will be done from your PayPal account.
Pro Tip: Orders can be submitted and you'll see a Payment Status of PENDING until your customer has completed the payment via the PayPal checkout screen. Once your customer has processed their payment, they will be redirected back to your PhotoBiz website automatically and the payment status will update to PAID.
If your customer submits their order but does not enter their credit/debit card information to complete the order, the payment status will not update. However, you'll still get an order notification email that the order was submitted.
