PayPal Checkout intelligently presents the most relevant payment methods to your customers, making it easy for them to pay. How you connect PayPal depends on how your payments are set up: if you set up payments in your dashboard, you complete that setup first and then add PayPal. If you use your own Stripe account, you connect PayPal as before.
Please publish your store so these payment methods are included and covered in your Privacy Policy if you have the Legal Text Generator activated.
The General Terms and Conditions as well as the country restrictions of the respective payment provider apply.
Connecting PayPal
First, make sure that you’ve already added a product to your Jimdo store. Then follow the steps for your payment setup.
Payments set up in your dashboard
You can only add PayPal once your payment setup is complete. If you haven't set up payments yet, do this first, see Getting Started with Payments. Then go to Payments > Settings, open the payment methods and connect your PayPal business account.
Your own Stripe account
- Log in to your Jimdo account and choose the desired website
- Click on Payments on the very left and choose Settings > Payment Providers
- Click on Connect in the PayPal box and log in to your PayPal business account
Your Jimdo store is now connected to PayPal. Your customers can choose to pay with PayPal, as well as credit card via PayPal.
Important: To connect PayPal to your shop, you need to have a PayPal business account.
Where your PayPal payments appear
PayPal payments are handled entirely in your PayPal account. They don't appear under Payments in your Jimdo dashboard, even if you set up payments there.
You also refund PayPal payments in your PayPal account. For details, see Refund via PayPal.
