PayPal Payments
PayPal Payments is available in WHMCS 8.9 and later. We recommend the PayPal Payments module to all new PayPal merchants.
PayPal Payments uses PayPal’s latest secure tokenization system and lets your clients make payments with PayPal Smart Buttons, including credit and debit card transactions. It ensures the security of your customers’ stored payment details with merchant-level vaulting, now available for PayPal merchant accounts in supported countries.
If you enable PayPal Payments, you can also enable PayPal Card Payments (below) to accept credit and debit cards using PayPal Advanced Checkout.
For more information, see PayPal Payments.
PayPal Card Payments
PayPal Card Payments is available in WHMCS 8.9 and later.
PayPal Card Payments augments the PayPal Payments module to add an unbranded credit and debit card option that uses PayPal Advanced Checkout. You can enable it to visually separate the PayPal Smart Button checkout experience from credit and debit card payments.
For more information, see PayPal Card Payments.
PayPal Checkout
PayPal Checkout gives your customers a simplified and secure checkout experience, with the option to use Express Checkout to complete the transaction. Express Checkout appears automatically as a payment option for any product that uses a One-Time, Biennial, or Triennial billing cycle.

PayPal Basic
PayPal Basic allows you to accept one-time and recurring payments through PayPal (including PayPal Subscriptions), process refunds, and handle payment reversals.

PayPal Pro Reference Payments
PayPal Pro Reference Payments allows you to store cards with a secure tokenization system for better PCI compliance. It can process one-time and recurring payments and send refunds.
This module does not support adding or updating card data via the Admin Area. Instead, you can do this by paying an invoice on behalf of a client.
