    Hi @NLASSOC,

    You are able to set up subscriptions on your for using PayPal, which integration to use depends on the type of account you have with PayPal.

    For example, if you just have a personal account with PayPal you would Then use the PayPal Standard integration. During the integration process, you would just enter the email address of your PayPal account.

    Now if you have a Business account then you could use the PayPal Pro, PayPal Express or PayPal Checkout. To connect to PayPal during the integration for these you need to enter your API credentials.

    So you should be good with the personal account with PayPal Standard.

    I have added a few helpful guides below as well.
