Hi Murphy,

It’s great that you’re looking to offer your customers the Pay Later option—it’s a smart move to boost sales! Here’s a quick overview of how to set it up:

1. Check Eligibility for PayPal Pay Later
Log into your PayPal Business account and check if the “Pay Later” option is available. This feature is typically included in PayPal Checkout.


2. Activate PayPal Pay Later

Go to the Payments section in your PayPal account.

Look for PayPal Checkout and ensure “Pay Later” is enabled.

You might need to customize your settings so the Pay Later option appears for eligible customers.



3. Integrate PayPal into Your Website

If you’re using an e-commerce platform like Shopify, WooCommerce, or Wix, there’s often a direct integration for PayPal.

If you need a custom integration (e.g., if your site is hand-coded),you’ll need to copy and paste PayPal’s checkout button code into your site.



4. Create a PayPal Payment Link

Go to the Pay & Get Paid section and choose Request Payments.

Create a link for the specific amount or leave it open for the customer to fill in.

Share the link with your customers via email, social media, or your website.


If you’d like, I can help you set everything up, from enabling Pay Later to integrating PayPal on your website. I have experience working with payment systems and can ensure everything runs smoothly for you and your customers. Feel free to message me, and we can discuss how I can assist!

Best regards,
Mike
