Adding PayPal as a payment gateway with the Funnelish Pay app is easy. After you create a gateway one time, you use it again on any number of funnels.
Make sure you:
Enable Funnelish Pay, before you try adding a payment gateway.
Add a payment form to a funnel step.
After you have created a gateway, you can use it again on any number of funnels.
Open a funnel step.
Click the payment form field.
In the left settings panel, click Edit payment options.
Click Add a new payment method.
In the pop-up window, click PayPal.
Click Add New PayPal Gateway. A window will display.
On the New gateway window:
Enter a unique Gateway name. This name is for internal use, it is not visible in the funnel.
You need to collect two keys from your PayPal account. To find that information, click the link below and log in to your PayPal account.
Log in to your PayPal account. The PayPal Developer page will display.
Scroll down to the App Name heading.
If you see an API called Default Application:
Click that link to display the API credentials page.
Come back to this article and scroll down to the API Credentials section.
If you don't see a default application, click the Create App button. A new page will display.
Enter a unique name for the new API (e.g., Funnelish).
Click Create App. The API credentials page will display.
Come back to this article and scroll down to the API Credentials section.
For this tutorial, we'll use Sandbox credentials (for testing purposes only), but you can switch to Live ones if preferred.
If you use Sandbox credentials, remember to toggle the Test Mode option to On.
On the PayPal API credentials page:
Click the Client ID field to copy the key.
Open a step in your funnel and add a Payment Form element to your canvas.
Click on the Payment Form and then click the Edit payment options button on the left panel.
Click Add a new payment method and select the PayPal option.
On the pop-up window, click on the Add New PayPal Gateway button.
Enter a unique Gateway name. This name is for internal use, it is not visible in the funnel.
Paste the key into the Client ID field.
Go back to the PayPal page.
Click the Show link (under the Secret heading) to expand the Secret folder.
Copy the key and paste it into the Secret field.
Check that you added your PayPal credentials correctly:
If doing test purchases: use your sandbox credentials
If doing live purchases: use your real credentials
In both cases, make sure that you copied the whole client id and secret key and pasted it without pressing the tab key or adding extra spaces.
On the New gateway window:
(Optional) Enter your brand name.
(If required) Switch the toggle to enable sandbox mode (Test Mode).
(Optional) Enter the payee's email address.
Click Create.
UNCLAIMED PAYMENTS - If you get a notification about unclaimed payments, please make sure your account is verified and you have a valid business account with a verified email.
