About this Module

  • We added this payment gateway in WHMCS 8.9.
  • WHMCS includes several options for accepting payments through PayPal. For more information, see PayPal.

If you enabled the PayPal Payments modules while using the Beta release of WHMCS 8.9, you must relink the associated PayPal accounts after you upgrade to the Release Candidate version of WHMCS 8.9 or later. If you do not do this, you may experience problems.

PayPal Card Payments functions as a secondary option for the PayPal Payments module.

When you enable this module, it adds a separate option for credit and debit cards that displays without the PayPal Smart Button branding. However, PayPal requires that you display PayPal Smart Buttons (using the PayPal Payments module) alongside this unbranded option.

Supported Features

Type One Time Recurring Refunds Reversals

This module supports 3D Secure for newly-entered cards and processing of vaulted (stored) cards.

Adding the PayPal Card Payments Payment Gateway

To set up the PayPal Card Payments payment gateway in WHMCS:
