Dear @Lectionary, Thank you for posting on the PayPal community regarding your interest in integrating PayPal. We appreciate your engagement with our PayPal community. To set up PayPal on your website in South Africa, you need to follow these steps: Sign up for a PayPal Business Account: Go to the PayPal website and click on the "Sign Up" button to create a business account. Fill in the required information, including your business details and bank account information. Verify Your Account: Once you've signed up, PayPal will send a verification email to the email address you provided during the sign-up process. Click on the verification link in the email to verify your account. Integrate PayPal into your website: There are several ways to integrate PayPal into your website: PayPal Standard Checkout: For integrating PayPal on your website, we recommend utilizing the Checkout JS integration. You can find detailed documentation on this integration method here: https://developer.paypal.com/studio/checkout/standard. Additionally, you may find it helpful to watch our integration video, available at: https://developer.paypal.com/video/watch/?videoId=MBfJEUGNNs0. No-Code Checkout: We have recently launched a new no-code payment button known as “Pay link or Button” that you can use to receive payments. For more detailed information, please visit the following URL: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/copy-paste/ Third-Party Platform: You can also choose a third-party platform to use with your website. You can find the PayPal suggested Third Partly List here: https://www.paypal.com/merchantapps/setup/checkout/ecommerce https://www.paypal.com/us/business/platforms-and-marketplaces/directory?_ga=1.236131009.1933830079.1721380485 If you have technical expertise or a developer at your disposal, I encourage you to review the documentation and proceed with integrating PayPal on your website. Alternatively, you can explore No-code Checkout and third-party payment solutions for easier integrations. Additionally, please note that we don't support South African Rand at PayPal, so your account's currency will default to USD. However, you will be able to receive payments in 24 currencies, including USD, that are supported by PayPal. You can find the complete list of the supported currencies and Payment Receiving Preferences here: https://developer.paypal.com/reference/currency-codes/. For any other technical queries or concerns, please create an MTS ticket via - https://www.paypal-support.com/s/?language=en_US with detailed information. We will be happy to assist you. Sincerely, Narendra Nath Laha Global Technical Support PayPal, Inc.
