PayPal is one of the leading online payment services, offering a fast and easy way to receive payments. Customers can pay with just a few clicks, which can boost your sales by an average of 23.1% (source: Payment in E-Commerce, IZ 2013, ECC Cologne). With over 305 million active accounts in more than 200 markets and 25 currencies worldwide, PayPal is widely used, including by over 1.2 million active customers in Switzerland.

PayPal offers transparent fees with no monthly minimum sales requirements; fees are only charged when you receive a payment. Integration with PayPal is seamless, providing smooth management of payments in your online shop, all connected to both your front and backend systems.

When a customer chooses to pay with PayPal on your website, they are securely redirected to PayPal’s platform, where they log in with their email address and password, confirm the payment with a click, and the transaction is completed instantly. This allows you to ship goods immediately, without waiting for days for payment confirmation, ensuring quick service and customer satisfaction. Additionally, the PayPal Express Checkout button on product and cart pages enables faster checkout, helping increase sales.

For Planet users, PayPal is easily integrated via a standardised interface, allowing for quick setup with no additional integration effort required.
