Can I still use the html code for customers to buy my stuff?

[Cubdriver]

Good morning! I have been selling products from my website for many years using the html links that PayPal used to provide. Do they still work? I haven't had a sale in recent months.

A typical link might look like this: <A href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=book%40WEBSITE%2ecom&item_name=BOOK%20MED...">

I see that PayPal now wants us to use JavaScript buttons, and I don't mind doing that, but before redoing my website I'd like to add one item to the product mix for the March update. Do the old links still work?

thank  you!

Hello @Cubdriver,

Thank you for posting to the PayPal Community.

PayPal Standard is still available for existing PayPal accounts. As long as you do not add any special features such as a drop down menu, you should be able to create a Buy Now or Add to Cart button that has a link.

Here are the new steps to getting to your buttons:

• Log into your PayPal Account
• Click on Business Tools
• Type buttons in the search box
• Click on PayPal buttons
• Click Get started
• Click on Add to Cart button or Buy Now button
• Fill in information
• Create the Button
• Click on URL Link or Email Tab to get the link

The other button option that has a link provided is the Sell on Social button.

Thank you,

Jennifer
