I need a form that clients can use to pay invoices using PayPal

    Asked on February 2, 2017 at 3:56 AM

    I need this invoice template to allow clients to input their invoice number, invoice total, and submit a payment via paypal. The paypal will be linked to my business paypal account.  I have included a screenshot of a template I think might work for me but I cannot figure out how to edit it. I want to change the area that says "my products" and has the different pricing options and replace it with the invoice number and the amount being paid. Is this possible? 

     

    Thank You!

    Thank you for your response! Before I can do anything it is asking for a paypal API username and password. When I input this information it says it cannot be verified. Is there something I need to do first or is this something I need to contact paypal for?

    Thank You

    Is there a different plan I need to be able to use paypal?

    Please make sure that you have agreed to the billing agreement for the Paypal Business account. You may contact Paypal to confirm this. If you have, please try submitting the form with a minimum payment to verify that the paypal integration is successful.

    If you are still experiencing an error during the submission, please let us know.
    Regards.

    I have contacted PayPal regarding the API username and why it cannot be verified, they're supposed to be getting back to me. 

    Just so I'm clear, can I use the paypal form/button with a regular business account or do I need to have the Payments Pro account?

     

    Thank You

    By examining the differences mentioned in this page, you will be able to decide which integration is better suited for you.
