    Hi I require a address from my customers and when they enter it, I need the shipping address info to be passed into the paypal page (its troublesome to enter the same info again). Any way to do this?

    You can try adding a calculation field > adding the address field to the formula (double click the red square to turn the field into text instead of numbers):

    Now edit the Paypal field properties so that it receives the calculation field as a custom field:

    You can test and clone the demo form:

    Hi there,

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to send a address details to the Paypal's checkout page. I also tried my colleague's solution and it is not posting the address details to checkout page. However, if the user logged in to its Paypal account, the address fields are filled automatically, so they don't need to fill out that field again.

    Alternatively, you can remove the address field on your form, because when the user filled the address on Paypal, you will be seen the details on the submission itself. Please, see it from the below:

    With that way, you can overcome this situation; but apart from this, there is no workaround to post that data. If you need further assistance, please always feel free to contact us.

     

    Thanks.
