### Step 1: Add PayPal Email to Funnelish

First, head to your account settings at the top right corner of your Funnelish account.

Add your PayPal email in the box provided and decide on your default currency, click **Save.**

You can also add your PayPal email and currency at the funnel level if it's different for each funnel!

Do this by going to your funnel settings and adding the info in the provided boxes.

### Step 2: Turn App on Account-Wide

Activate the plugin account-wide by visiting the Apps section of your account and toggling it to ON, like in the screenshot below:

![](https://2613769297-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-M1AQCa9ckIWH7hGfrUV%2F-MO75EWcuzKOBXRc2S0Y%2F-MO77D7Tx854Tx6N46NK%2FScreen%20Shot%202020-12-09%20at%2010.30.33%20AM.png?alt=media\&token=2664a6c1-70f7-47f9-983a-4706f194b7f9)

Decide if you want to offer credit card, PayPal, or both (recommended).

You can choose to use the default credit card form if you're using different gateways.

Click **Save Changes.**

### **Step 3: Turn App on in Funnel**

Next, head to your funnel and ensure the Plugin is turned on and active there as well.

Decide if you want to use PayPal as the default payment option. Users will still be allowed to choose other payment methods but PayPal will be the main option.

Decide if you want to track your PayPal orders in ClickFunnels.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
Due to a ClickFunnels limitation, turning this switch on will stop your orders from tracking in Funnelish. We only recommend this option if you rely on an integration we currently don't support.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

Once done, click **Save Changes.**

### Step 4: Remove "Return to Merchant" Button (recommended)

When having customers pay through PayPal, we often see people experiencing the nightmare where PayPal does not bring them back to the funnel to go through the rest of your offers!

To fix this issue follow the simple steps below:

* First, go to the PayPal website and log in to your account.
* Click the **Settings** icon at the top right side of the page.
* Click **Seller Tools** from the top bar.

![](https://2613769297-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-M1AQCa9ckIWH7hGfrUV%2F-MJ2XLgI8pNyge9LoZ_H%2F-MJ2a8fl7d7YkIThpoH6%2FScreen%20Shot%202020-10-07%20at%2011.04.55%20AM.png?alt=media\&token=332fb988-590c-4d05-a694-a7a3e833c327)

* Click the **“Website Payment Preferences”** update link in the Selling Preferences column.
* Switch On the **Auto Return** button.
* Input a default **Return URL** for all your funnels **(don't worry, this only works as a fallback if something goes wrong at the product level - make it something simple, like your home page)**.
* Click **Save!**
