To use PayPal with Evalato you need an active PayPal business account and to complete the setup for the payment method.

Setup instructions

  1. Create a PayPal business account at https://www.paypal.com

  2. Go to Settings > Payments > Payment methods and press Add payment method

  3. Provide your PayPal business account email in the PayPal email field in Evalato

  4. Log in to your PayPal account

  5. Under My account > Overview find your PayPal primary currency

  6. Make sure the currency you choose for the payment method in Evalato corresponds to your PayPal primary currency

PayPal is an online payment method and registrations using it are automatically marked as paid upon successful payment.

What you need

A bank account — this is where your funds are deposited once you ask to withdraw them from PayPal.

A valid email address — payments are sent to you using your email address. As soon as you receive the payment, it goes into your PayPal balance. When you have a PayPal balance you can withdraw the funds to your bank account.

A merchant account — a business PayPal account is recommended for merchants who operate under a company/group name. Alternatively, you can use a Premier account, but that account type is for casual sellers and offers fewer features.

Payment icons

You can add Payment icons on your registration form to show which forms of payment are supported. It is important to know that some of these options may only be available in select countries. The icons serve only as a visual indicator for the person making the purchase. If you are not certain which forms of payment are supported by the selected payment processor we advise checking with the processor’s official documentation.
