💳 PayPal Keyless OAuth Integration

What is new?

We have launched a new keyless PayPal connection experienceusing PayPal’s OAuth based integration and their latest integration SDK. This makes connecting PayPal faster, simpler, and more future ready as PayPal expands supported payment methods globally.

Here is what this enables for you:

Frictionless setup - Accounts no longer need to search PayPal for API keys or credentials. They can connect PayPal in a few clicks with no manual configuration.
Venmo support - Venmo can now show on checkout alongside PayPal and Pay Later, when available for the buyer.
Faster access to new PayPal capabilities - As PayPal adds and upgrades methods, we can enable more of those capabilities on our side more quickly. Examples planned include direct credit and debit card processing, off session charging, manual subscriptions, and Apple Pay.

What you need to do?

New accounts -

All new accounts will see this new integration option by default.

Existing accounts -

To switch to the keyless connection, go to the PayPal integration 'Manage' section and click 'Reconnect'. You would be redirected to PayPal page to finish setup.

Why it matters?

Faster onboarding - accounts can start accepting PayPal payments without technical steps or credential hunting.
More ways to pay can improve conversions - Adding Venmo and expanding payment options gives buyers more flexibility at checkout.
A more future proof integration - This SDK based approach helps you benefit from PayPal’s evolving payment methods with fewer changes required from your side.
