The PayPal gateway is used for credit card transactions only. If you are configuing PayPal, use the PayPal Native gateway.
Information For those gateways that support multiple types of payments (Credit or Debit), add a new 'Key' to the Payment Gateways list in the format of PaymentGateway::PaymentType (TenderRetail::Credit). For more information, refer to General Configuration - Lists. |
To access the PayPal payment gateway navigate to the Registry - System::Configuration::Payment Gateways node.
