Paypal Shopping Cart - Check out Process Steps

Occasionally someone calls me with questions about the check-out process of my online store. It is a lot easier to show screenshots then to explain the process verbally. The Paypal Shopping Cart process just got a lot simpler as of October 2016.

When you add an item on your cart the Paypal shopping cart opens in a secondary window or a new tab depending on the preferences set on your browser. The secondary window is a Paypal window, with a https to keep your personal info secure. Here are the steps to pay by credit card, not a Paypal account.


STEP 1 - Shopping Cart
Green arrows are options; red arrows are mandatory steps.








–> Check items on shopping cart. 
Update quantities. Remove items. Click on more for full description of item. Double check your shopping cart content.


–> Click on LOWER BUTTON - To pay by credit card


STEP 2 - Enter all your info, cc info, billing address, shipping address if different from billing address, shipping method, phone number and email address.


Why do we need your phone number? Occasionally, we have a question about your order and we need an answer immediately to ship your order right away… and please make sure your email address is correct otherwise, you will not get your order confirmation and shipping notices.
