And due to PayPal’s extensive feature list, you’re able to take payments in the way that you want.

PayPal Checkout Add-On Key Features

Once you’ve enabled the PayPal Add-On, you get access to many features so that you can take online payments in a way that suits your business, including:

  • Multiple Payment Options – Let your customers and clients make payments using PayPal, Venmo, Pay Later options, and country-specific payment methods on nearly any device.
  • One-Time and Subscription Payments – Use your forms to sell products and one-time services by collecting single payments with PayPal as well as setting up and collecting recurring donations and subscription payments.
  • Authorize and Capture – Use this feature of PayPal Checkout to authorize a payment and then capture or collect it later so that you can accept down payments and deposits via your WordPress website.
  • Process Refunds – Quickly action refunds directly from your WordPress dashboard to keep your customers happy.
  • Integrate With Other Gravity Forms Add-Ons – The PayPal Checkout Add-On works with other add-ons, including the Advanced Post Creation Add-On and the User Registration Add-On, so you can take payment upon post creation and charge registration fees or set up subscription payments during account creation, all seamlessly through a single form.

The PayPal Checkout Add-On is a versatile option for taking online payments on a WordPress website. Whether you’re selling physical products and digital downloads online, collecting recurring fees for access to membership content, or processing donations, you can easily do so with WordPress, Gravity Forms, and PayPal Checkout.
