    Hi,

    I want to add a Contact Number field on a Paypal Integration form. I want to pass the Contact Number field's value to Paypal when someone submits the form.

    Is that possible?

    My form link: http://pavlab.com/pavlab/bunnyvac/order-now-bunnyvac/

    This is how the form looks like.

    This is how the Paypal page looks like after submitting the form. A you can see only the Product in passed to Paypal upon submit.

    Hi Benesa,

    You can use the Custom Field in the Paypal payment tool to pass a custom data to the transaction.

    You have to add a Textbox, or Hidden box, or Unique ID field on your form that you can use as the Custom Field in the payment tool.

    Hope this help. Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    Just to be clear, the custom data will not appear in the user's payment screen.

    You will see it instead in your completed payment transactions in your Paypal account.

    You may check the completed payments in your account. The custom data should be there.

    Let us know if still not clear.

    Thanks.

    Hi Jonathan,

    Thank you for clearing it up.

    I will just check the completed payment transactions once someone ordered via the form.

    Thank you so much.

    Hi Jonathan,

     

    I'm getting back into this topic because I noticed that I Contact Number is not showing in completed payment transactions on Paypal. Can you tell me what's the problem?

     

    Thank you.

    I've created a cloned version of your form and submitted a testing payment and I was able to see the contact information I entered when I submitted the form.

    Hi Raul,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I can also see that. I didn't know it was the Contact Number. Can I change the text Custom to Contact Number? It is really confusing.

    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, that would be out of our scope since you're viewing PayPal's page which we cannot customize. You may want to contact PayPal Support to check if this is possible.

    Let us know if you need further assistance and we'll be happy to provide it.
