Compare PayPal Express Checkout vs PayPal Payments Standard (Add-on)

Express Checkout (see integration instructions here)

• A client has to log in or register at PayPal
• Available as a part of the main Bookly Pro plugin

Payments Standard

• A client can just enter credit card details, no PayPal account necessary
• Available as a separate add-on for Bookly

Setup

1. Purchase, download, install and activate the PayPal Payments Standard (Add-on) in the Plugins section of your WordPress dashboard.

2. In Settings > Payments, look for the PayPal payment method and choose ‘Payments Standard’ from the drop-down menu.

3. Enter your PayPal ID in the designated field.

4. By default, Sandbox mode is disabled. Enable Sandbox mode for testing purposes, or leave it disabled to launch the PayPal payment method immediately.

5. The price correction feature allows you to adjust the booking cost by adding a fee or discount when a customer selects this payment option.

6. The time interval of the payment gateway determines the duration after which the payment made via the payment gateway is considered incomplete. If the customer doesn’t complete the payment within the configured period, the appointment will be rejected. Please note that this functionality requires a scheduled cron job.

To adjust the order of payment options displayed on the front-end booking form, use the drag-and-drop functionality (sandwich icon) to reorder the payment options as desired.
