Using PayPal with Upmind
Configure PayPal with ease
PayPal is a popular payment method. It provides a range of payment solutions, from simple payments to subscription-based models. Upmind supports multiple PayPal integrations, allowing flexibility for both businesses and clients.
We recommend PayPal Billing Agreements for most use cases, as it supports both one-time and recurring transactions, regardless of reference transaction settings.
