Setting up payments with PayPalV2
At VTEX, it is possible to integrate with the payment provider PayPalV2. Through this provider, your store can make sales via PayPalCP and PayPal.
To configure PayPalV2, follow the steps below:
- In the VTEX Admin, go to Store Settings > Payment > Providers, or type Providers in the search bar at the top of the page.
- On the providers screen, click the
New Provider
button. - Type the name paypal-v2 in the search bar and click on the name of the provider.
- In Provider Authorization, fill in the App key and App token fields with data provided by PayPalV2. In the Paypal environment, the App key corresponds to the Client ID, and the App token refers to the Secret.
- If you wish to modify the identification name to be displayed for the PayPalV2 provider on the VTEX Admin screen, enter the information in the Name field in Basic Information.
- In Payment Control, select whether you want to activate the provider in a test environment by clicking Enable test mode.
- In Automatic Settlement field, select one of the following options:
- Use behavior recommended by the payment processor: Capture is not automatic; it is scheduled according to the period specified by the acquirer. The acquirer indicates whether the payment has been authorized and can determine or recommend a number of days for the capture upon payment authorization. (This is the platform's default behavior).
- Automatic capture immediately after payment authorization: Capture is automatically performed right after payment authorization, even if the transaction includes an anti-fraud analysis.
- Automatic capture immediately after anti-fraud analysis: Capture is automatically performed right after payment authorization and anti-fraud analysis. If you select this behavior and do not have anti-fraud analysis, the system will perform the payment capture as in "Automatic capture immediately after payment authorization".
- Disabled: Capture takes place only when the order is invoiced. If you select this behavior, it is important to pay attention to the invoicing time, as invoicing can exceed the capture time agreed with the payment provider and lead to the cancellation of the transaction.
- Click Save.
