The reason I ask because the thing I don't like about paypal is the hold period. It could be up to 90 days or longer for paypal to release your funds and sometimes you need your money much sooner.

Hi Abinandha, thanks for your question. We suggest you contact PayPal.com/contact directly for technical support.

Hi Rey, you're very welcome 😃💜

Hi Sehrish, thank you for your question! Unfortuantely, we wouldn't recommend using this method with a Shopify website as their suite of integrated payment solutions are more functional and user-friendly than these standalone PayPal buttons.

Ah, thanks for clarifying 😃 We haven't found a straight forward way to achieve this but we're looking into a solution for this and will get back to you with what we find.

Unfortunately we couldn't find a way to create a clickable button on top of the image from within the article edit mode. There are limited features available there, and we could only achieve a button below an image as you described. Sorry we couldn't help this time.

Hi Russell, thank you for the lovely comment! We're glad it helped 😃

Hi Maciej, in this video we are using the Wix Editor. But Wix also offers another design platform to build your website called Wix ADI (Artificial Design Intelligence). These two platforms look different to each other and offer different options. If you are using Wix ADI you do have the option to switch Wix Editor. To do that, simply follow the steps here: websitewiz.co/how-to-change-from-wix-adi-to-wix-editor/ Hope this helps!

Hi Kathleen, thank you so much for mentioning this. We suggest using the technique shown in the video when there's only about a month to go on your subscription for this reason. Wix does refund the remaining part of your subscription, but as prices go up, it would be better keeping as much of the subscription as possible at any old rates, as you've mentioned. Thanks again and good luck on your website journey! 😃

@@websitewiz But everytime you click on that save 50% offer, you're increasing the total cost of your subscription- instead of staying locked in to your original rate. So yes, you pay half but you pay half of a larger total price. It's a racket.

​@@CoupleScienceWorks Hi Kathleen, yes, as we show in the video, when you increase to a higher plan you get more features and that costs you more. But you still pay LESS than you would if you stayed locked into your original, lower plan, at full price. So in the end you pay less, not more. Now, if years later, you are on a plan that is higher in cost at 50%, than your original plan at 100%, then as we mentioned in the video, you can choose to downgrade your plan back to the original one, if you're not now using the features of the higher plan. Hope this helps!

Hi Rocky, thank you for your suggestions. If you have pasted the code into your web page and the button is not showing up, that could mean there is an error in the code. We suggest starting again from the beginning and go through step by step to make sure the code is correct. Even adding an extra period, or comma etc. will break the coding so that the button won't work. Hope this helps!

Thanks so much Philani! 😃

Hi Sonika, thanks for your question. It's not easy to set up a redirection for this particular button. The 'Smart' button requires coding to make that work. So, the easiest way to do this would be to use another button. One that includes a redirection option as part of setting up the button in the first place. You can do this easily using PayPal's 'Buy Now' or 'Add to Cart' buttons. These buttons include a field for a redirection page as part of set up. These buttons are located on the same page as the ‘Smart’ button of your PayPal account, as shown in the video. Please note, if you use the 'Add to Cart' button, there is also a ‘View Cart’ button, which you would place in the header of your site too, which allows your customer to view their shopping cart while they’re shopping. Make sure to include this on your site too. We've created a video on the 'Add to Cart' button which you can check out here: ruclips.net/video/C-thWrCUYFs/видео.html This is the easiest way we have found to redirect a customer to another page after purchase. We hope this helps!

Hi Pixie, thanks for your question! We've made a video to help show you how to do this. You can check it out here: ruclips.net/video/Ol32fEWVAtU/видео.html If you have any other questions, feel free to leave us a comment. Hope this helps!

Hi Ariyana, please see post to answer your question here: websitewiz.co/how-to-create-a-venmo-button/ Hope this helps!

Hi Brian, thank you for your feedback! We understand that PayPal has recently updated their design and options, which can be quite confusing. In the meantime, here are a few key updates to help you navigate the new PayPal interface: *Updated Navigation:* PayPal has reorganized some of their menu options. You can find the button creation options under "Tools" > "All Tools" > "PayPal Buttons". *Shipping Calculator:* The shipping settings can be accessed via "Account Settings" > "Shipping" under "Products and Services". *Button Customization:* When creating or editing buttons, make sure to use the updated form fields, including the weight parameter for shipping calculations. This is our only video on this subject of 'Add to Cart' buttons, and unfortunately we are not planning on creating an update in the near future. For more detailed instructions in the meantime, you can check PayPal's official help page and their community forums: www.paypal-community.com/t5/PayPal-Community/ct-p/en. Hope this helps!

Hi, thanks for your question. To add the 'Pay with Card' button on your PayPal Business account's payment page, especially when using it with a booking system like Bokun, follow these steps: *1. Check PayPal Account Settings* · Log in to your PayPal Business account. · Go to 'Account Settings' or 'Profile Settings'. · Under 'Website payments', ensure that the 'PayPal Account Optional' is enabled. This option allows guests to pay with a credit or debit card without having to create a PayPal account. *2. Ensure Your PayPal Integration is Correct* · Verify that your integration with Bokun is set up to support both PayPal and card payments. This often involves checking the API settings or the integration configuration in Bokun. · Bokun should have a setting where you can specify payment methods, including allowing card payments via PayPal. *3. Customize PayPal Checkout Experience* · Log in to your PayPal account and navigate to 'PayPal Buttons'. · Choose the button type you need (like 'Buy Now' or 'Pay Now'). · Customize the button to ensure that the 'Debit or Credit Card' option is available for guests who don’t have a PayPal account. *4. Check Country Restrictions* · Ensure there are no country-specific restrictions that might be hiding the card payment option. PayPal sometimes restricts certain features based on the user's country. *5. Contact Bokun Support* · If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Bokun's support team. They can provide guidance specific to their system and ensure that your PayPal integration is configured correctly to display the card payment option. *6. Update Your Website* · Ensure your website’s payment page reflects the changes. Sometimes, the issue might be related to the caching of old settings. Clear your cache or update the settings in your CMS (Content Management System) or website builder. *STEP BY STEP GUIDE* *1. Enable Guest Checkout in PayPal* · Log into your PayPal Business account. · Go to 'Account Settings'. · Under 'Payment Preferences', ensure that 'PayPal Account Optional' is turned on. *2. Verify PayPal Integration with Bokun* · Log in to your Bokun account. · Navigate to 'Sales tools' and then to 'Payment Gateways'. · Ensure that your PayPal integration is properly configured to accept credit card payments. · If there is an option to enable or disable certain payment methods, make sure that credit card payments are enabled. *3. Create or Update Your PayPal Button* · In your PayPal account, go to 'Tools' and then 'All Tools'. · Select 'PayPal Buttons' and create a new button. · During the setup process, ensure that the button is configured to accept credit card payments. · Copy the HTML code provided by PayPal and update your Bokun payment page with this code. *4. Test the Payment Page* · After making these changes, test your payment page using an incognito window or a different browser. · Verify that the 'Pay with Card' option appears and functions correctly. *5. Contact Support* · If the issue persists, contact PayPal support to ensure there are no account-specific issues. · Contact Bokun support for assistance with integrating PayPal correctly on their platform. Hope this helps!

Hi Mohammad, the currency you set is up to you. If you don't specify a currency, PayPal will use the default currency of your PayPal account. Hope this helps!

@@websitewiz my store currency is GBP and it changes according to customers location from where they will purchase so i should keep it GBP or USD only as paypal deals with USD.

Hi Mohammad, thanks for your question. *Disclaimer* We do not know enough about your business to give you specific advice. As such, we can only give you general information and this comment does not contain business or financial advice. The information is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. This comment and its materials are not intended to be used as a substitute for advice from your professional or licensed business or financial representative. Always seek the advice of your own licensed business or financial adviser or other qualified business or financial provider for any advice you need regarding any business or financial matters. If the conversion fees are significant and you have a global customer base, moving to USD might make sense. Otherwise, staying with GBP could be more beneficial if most of your customers are UK-based. *1. Keep Store Currency in GBP* *Pros:* - Consistency for UK-based customers. - Easier accounting if your business is UK-based. - No conversion fees for transactions made in GBP. *Cons:* - International customers may see fluctuating prices due to conversion rates. - PayPal may charge conversion fees when converting GBP to USD during the transaction processing. *2. Switch Store Currency to USD:* *Pros:* - Aligns directly with PayPal’s preferred currency, potentially reducing conversion fees. - Simplifies the pricing structure for international customers. *Cons:* - UK customers will see prices in USD, which might be less convenient. - Potential confusion or dissatisfaction among local customers due to currency differences. *Evaluate Your Customer Base:* If the majority of your customers are from the UK, keeping GBP might be more customer-friendly. If you have a significant international customer base, switching to USD might reduce transaction costs. *PayPal Fees:* Check PayPal's fee structure for currency conversion and consider how significant these fees are for your business. *Customer Experience:* Think about what provides the best experience for your customers. Consistency and simplicity often lead to higher satisfaction. *Conclusion* Balance the ease of transactions (aligning with PayPal's USD preference) against the customer convenience of seeing prices in their local or familiar currency. If the conversion fees are significant and you have a global customer base, moving to USD might make sense. Otherwise, staying with GBP could be more beneficial if most of your customers are UK-based. Hope this helps!

Hi, thanks very much for the feedback. This video has already been edited at the current volume but we'll keep it in mind for future videos 😃

Hi Nguyen, the free Wix domain (not custom domain) lasts as long as you have an account with them. It's basically 'free forever'. No, you won't get a custom domain name as part of a free account. If you want a customised domain name this is renewed every 1-, 2-, or 3- years, depending on your preference. If you choose a premium paid plan, a custom domain is included for the first year free of charge, if you choose a yearly premium plan. Hope this helps!

Hi Tibor, yes, PayPal buttons in sandbox mode work the same way as they do in live mode, but without real deposits and withdrawals. The PayPal Sandbox is a testing environment that is similar to the live PayPal production environment. If you create a "Add to Cart" button in sandbox mode, users can click the button, go through the PayPal login and payment process, and see a confirmation of the payment. However, since it’s in sandbox mode, no actual funds are transferred between accounts. Once you have thoroughly tested your PayPal integration in sandbox mode and are confident that it works correctly, you can switch to live mode. Simply replace the sandbox API credentials with live API credentials, and your same PayPal button will start processing real transactions. Hope this helps!

@@websitewiz Thank you so much for answering this, I even posted this question twice on the PayPal developer forum and nobody answered it after even a week. It was the only thing keeping our online store to be open. Thank you very much again!

You're welcome Tibor. Best of luck with your website!

Hi Elizabeth, thanks for your question! We found this Wix tutorial showing how to edit blog post layouts, including the blog title, but unfortunately it didn't work for us. We tried it on an old Wix site, as well as a freshly installed site, as Wix changed their available settings in Nov 2023. But the 'Change Presets' function did not appear for us, which is necessary to changing the layout. Please let us know if you have more luck with it. support.wix.com/en/article/wix-blog-customizing-your-blog-post-page#customizing-the-elements-displayed-on-the-page

Hi Raju, thank you for commenting. Unfortunately, we don't understand your question. Could you please rephrase it? Thank you.

Hi Ali, it is now called "Pay Links and Buttons" and is in the same location as shown in the video. Alternatively, you can access it directly from here: www.paypal.com/buttons/ Hope this helps!

Hi Samuel, sorry we don't know what you mean exactly by "fix"? Repair or fix in place? Could you please let us know.

Hi Maria, it comes from here: www.wix.com/promo-code/coupons

Hi Mademoiselle Authentique, thanks for your feedback. We're so glad you found the video helpful 💜 With regards to drop shipping, we wouldn't recommend using standalone PayPal buttons as the functionality to integrate with the process of drop shipping is inadequate. If your customer pays using this button, it will not automatically notify the manufacturer / shipper to send the product. This would need to be managed manually. For drop shipping we would recommend integrating with a dynamic, fully integrated and functional PayPal (or other) shopping cart for that type of website. Using these buttons would cost more time and effort than you would save in the long run. Hope this helps and we wish you lots of success with your drop shipping business!

Hi Maria, to create a return fee button, simply follow the steps in the video to create an additional button. PayPal has changed the look and feel of their buttons pages since we made this video. They now call the Smart button: No-Code Checkout button. But the basic functionality and steps are still the same. You can create multiple versions of this button, and access them all from this page: www.paypal.com/buttons/saved Hope this helps!

Hi Kay, yes, it is still every Tuesday as far as we can see, also in 2024. Hope this helps!

Hi Dikshant, we understand. Currently, it shows the button 'Build it'. Steps: 1. Click the button 'Build It'. 2. Select 'Button Code' tab. 3. Click 'Copy HTML Code'. 4. Continue watching the video and complete steps as shown from here: ruclips.net/video/9p-kA20-Bgg/видео.html Hope this helps!

Hi Waleed, the buttons shown in this video are standalone buttons and not able to be controlled by settings within your Shopify account. If you're using Shopify, you don't need to use these buttons. They provide automatic PayPal buttons within the Shopify platform. To accept credit card payments on a Shopify website, you can use 'Shopify Payments' right on your website, if you live in one of these countries: help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/shopify-payments/supported-countries PayPal is a third party payment processor that you can use if you want to offer your customer more payment options at checkout, or as an alternative to Shopify Payments, if this isn't available in your country. For more info on how to set up PayPal payments on Shopify, please checkout this article here: help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/paypal/set-up-paypal Also, for PayPal to work with Shopify, you will need a 'business' PayPal account and this is easy to set up. Please check out the link here for instructions: www.paypal.com/gf/smarthelp/article/how-do-i-upgrade-from-a-personal-premier-account-to-a-business-account-faq1317 Hope this helps!

@@websitewiz Dear, Thanks for this

Hi Zabii, usually the fees are based on each transaction value. Last time we checked it was a small flat fee + a percentage of the transaction value. But the exact rates may vary depending on your banking location and other factors, such as your customer's location etc. Best bet would be to do a Google search for "PayPal Merchant Fees (ADD YOUR COUNTRY)" for more info or contact PayPal direct: www.paypal.com/us/smarthelp/contact-us Hope this helps!

Hi Tanvir, we're so glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for the positive feedback 😀

Hi Yoneyris, you could use the Add to Cart button instead for more than one product. We made a video about that button here: ruclips.net/video/C-thWrCUYFs/видео.html Hope this helps!

Hi Salaudeen, thanks for your question! To determine if your PayPal account is in Sandbox mode, you can look for a few key indicators: 1. **URL Check**: Check the URL when you are logged in. If the URL contains "sandbox.paypal.com", you are in the Sandbox environment. The regular PayPal accounts operate under "paypal.com". 2. **Dashboard Appearance**: When you log into the PayPal Sandbox environment, the interface typically mentions "Sandbox" somewhere on the dashboard, often at the top or in the account overview section. 3. **Email Notifications**: If you receive email notifications from PayPal and they mention "Sandbox" or "Test Email" within the subject or body, it's a clear indication that the actions are being performed in a Sandbox environment. 4. **Testing Features**: If you're able to perform tests without real money transactions and with test data, such as using test credit card numbers, this is another sign that you're in the Sandbox environment. If you're developing or testing integrations and you're unsure or need to switch between modes, you might need to log out from one environment and log in to another with the appropriate credentials. Hope this helps!

You're welcome Youssef. 💜 Thank you for the lovely comment! 😃

Hi Franc, if you have a yearly premium plan with Wix they offer a free domain voucher for 1 year as part of most packages. For more info, please check out this article from Wix: support.wix.com/en/article/about-your-free-domain-voucher If you would prefer to buy a domain name elsewhere and then link it to your Wix website, you can do that following the steps here: support.wix.com/en/article/connecting-a-domain-to-the-wix-name-servers For any other problems, please contact Wix support. We have made a video here on how to do that: ruclips.net/video/uKYgl4BcXJw/видео.htmlsi=N5NorwaBKI2f-aTy Hope that helps!

Hi Franc, you can have a 'premium Wix account' without linking a domain yet. Linking your domain is a step that can also be done after upgrading. These are two separate actions. However, if you accidentally upgraded and want to cancel, there is the following refund policy on Wix's website: Trial period: When paying by credit card, Premium plans come with a 14 day trial period. If you cancel during the first 14 days, your trial period ends immediately and you are fully refunded (within the next 20 business days). support.wix.com/en/article/canceling-a-wix-premium-plan Hope this helps!

Hi Udoro, unfortunately PayPal is no longer offering standalone payment solutions, such as their Smart Button, without coding it in directly, or using one of their partner applications, such as Wix, Squarespace etc. If you want to take the coding path, please check out this page on PayPal's website to get started: developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/standard/ Otherwise, the only other way to connect PayPal buttons to your website is to sign up for a paid solution as mentioned above. Hope this helps!

Using PayPal for receiving payments on your Wix site while based in Ghana, even with an account created in Canada, can be quite complex due to regional restrictions and PayPal's compliance requirements. PayPal generally requires that the account holder's use conforms to the regulatory environment of the country they are located in. If your PayPal account was created in Canada, it's associated with Canadian banking and regulatory frameworks. Using it from Ghana might lead to complications, such as account limitations or closure if PayPal determines the account usage is inconsistent with their policies or international regulations. We would suggest that you contact PayPal Support to explain your situation and seek advice on how to legally use your account from Ghana. They might provide a solution or guide you on the right steps to take to comply with their policies. Hope this helps!
