About PayPal

General information about PayPal

PayPal is one of the world’s leading eWallets for e- and m-Commerce. Around 179 million active members in over 200 countries pay for their online orders with PayPal. Customers in Germany can pay via direct debit, giropay or credit card (American Express, Diners Club, Discover, MasterCard, Visa). Along with the above payment methods, PayPal PLUS offers purchase on account. Members log into their PayPal account with their email address and a password during checkout and choose the preferred payment method (direct debit, PayPal credit, credit card and, if applicable purchase on account). The amount payable is then immediately credited to their own PayPal account. The usual direct debit periods for transfers or the delay resulting from distribution to collecting services do not apply. This allows real-time payments processing on the Internet.

PayPal Express Checkout

offers the PayPal Express Checkout to shorten the order process: Your customer does not need to enter any address data but rather click on Checkout with PayPal in the shopping cart area, log on and select the invoice- and delivery address retained by PayPal. then sends the delivery address as a result parameter back to your shop.

Buyers and vendors are also protected.

PayPal offers buyers and merchants extensive buyer / vendor protection. Buyers are able to claim money back from PayPal in the event of non-fulfilment of a contract of sale. With address verification and PayPal seller protection PayPal removes the merchant of the risk of payment failures in the case of direct debit payments, German credit card payments and unjustified customer complaints. Vendor protection is always linked to PayPal rules and conditions. PayPal risk management with buyer protection and address verification is provided to you via the .

Payment online globally

PayPal is particularly beneficial for overseas customer acquisition.  supports all currencies and markets offered by PayPal. In many countries PayPal offers customers typical payment methods for their country. Customers abroad can often use typical payment methods such as prepaid cards in Italy or debit cards in the UK. Integrating PayPal into your shop provides your customers with several payment methods at once.

paypal.aspx


With this URL supports two different PayPal methods: One the one hand you can offer PayPal quite normally as an additional payment method for the conclusion of a sale. Otherwise you can use PayPal Express Checkout Shortcut, which connects the customers from the shopping cart directly to PayPal, where they can then select their delivery and invoicing address. The customer saves having to re-enter address details and you, as the merchant, enjoy PayPal vendor protection.

also supports the separation of authorisation and capture for PayPal Express Checkout. You can set parameters via the to control whether the amount on the customer's PayPal account should be blocked or captured immediately.

Notice: Please note that a PayPal connection in the shop via i-Frame is not possible due to PayPal-Regulations. Express Checkout always connects the Customer directly to PayPal.

Notice: One of the following conditions must be fulfilled to enable you to benefit from PayPal seller protection. Either the customer uses PayPal Express Checkout and selects a delivery address which it has saved previously with PayPal, which transmits to your shop. Or your shop transmits the already known delivery address to PayPal. Seller protection applies only if the goods have been supplied to this specified address. There may be no more than 3 days between the authorisation of the amount in the customer's PayPal account and capture if you wish to benefit from seller protection. therefore supports several alternatives for the processing of PayPal payments: we shall be happy to advise you about the implementation of PayPal.

That means within a batch file for a particular MerchantID can be transferred transactions for other merchants with a separate Sub-MID.

Following table gives an overview of all batch versions that are possible for a specific action and their specialities:
