Wondering how to integrate Leadpages with PayPal? In this Leadpages tutorial and Leadpages
review, you'll learn about the PayPal Leadpages integration to add Leadpages third party payment
options to receive Leadpages payments without a Leadpages checkout page. So let's get right
into this Leadpages sales funnel video on how to add a PayPal button to Leadpages so
that you can accept payments in Leadpages.
First off, if you don't have a Leadpages account yet, just click on the link in the description
box below to sign up for free. Since you can only accept online sales and payments with
Leadpages' Pro plan, being able to integrate Leadpages with PayPal is great if you're on
Leadpages' Standard plan, but also want to accept online sales and payments.
If you're wondering what comes with a Leadpages Standard plan and Leadpages Pro plan, make
sure to watch my video on 'Leadpages Pricing: Is Leadpages Worth it?'. I'll leave the link
to it in the description box below.
To integrate Leadpages with PayPal, log in to your Leadpages account, and then click
on 'landing pages' from the left-hand side panel. You can either add PayPal to a landing
page you have already created in Leadpages or to a new one you haven't created yet. In
this video, I'll be showing you how to add PayPal to an existing landing page, namely
a sales page, in Leadpages.
For a complete walkthrough on how to create sales pages in Leadpages, make sure to watch
my videos on 'How To Build A Landing Page In Leadpages To Make Sales' and 'Leadpages
Sales Funnel'. I'll leave the links to them in the description box below.
Locate the sales page you wish to add PayPal, and then click on the pencil icon on the right-hand
side to edit it. If you click on 'widgets' from the left-hand side panel, and scroll
through the available widget options, you'll notice that PayPal isn't one of them.
As such, we need to do a workaround in order to integrate Leadpages with PayPal. To do
so, head over to PayPal and login to your PayPal account. Click on 'Pay & Get Paid'
from the menu up top, and then click on 'PayPal buttons' under the 'Accept Payments' tab.
Select which PayPal button you would like to add to Leadpages: Smart Buttons, which
gives customers the option to pay with PayPal, Venmo, PayPal credit, and major credit cards
and debit cards on almost any device, Sell on Social, which allows you to sell items
with ease on your social media accounts, Buy Now, which makes it easy to buy one or more
of a single item, Add to Cart, which allows you to sell multiple items with one payment
button, Donate, which allows you to accept one-time and recurring donations with a custom
donate button, shareable link or QR code, Smart Subscribe, which allows you to set up
a subscription plan and give your customers options to subscribe with PayPal and major
credit and debit cards on almost any device, Subscribe, which allows you to set up recurring
charges of the same amount for your goods and services, as well as Automatic Billing,
which allows you to bill customers for goods and services that change in price monthly.
I'll go ahead and click on the 'Bill Now' PayPal button, and then follow the steps that
appear on the following screen to set this PayPal button up. Insert the item name, I'll
add 'online course' item ID (optional), I'll leave that blank, price, I'll add '$197',
currency, I'll set that to USD, customize the button by selecting whether you wish to
add a dropdown menu with price or option, add a dropdown menu, add a text field, and
to customize the text or appearance (optional) by using a PayPal button or your own button.
If you select PayPal button, you can toggle whether you wish to use a smaller button or
not, I'll toggle that to off, display credit card logos or not, I'll toggle that to off
as well, set the country and language for button, I'll leave that as 'United States
- English', and select the button text, I'll leave that as 'buy now'.
If you so wish, you can also add a specific amount for shipping, and a percentage for
the tax rate. I'll leave both these options blank. When it comes to merchant account IDs,
you can either select to use your secure merchant account ID or to use your primary email address.
I'll select 'use my secure merchant account ID', and then on 'create button' at the bottom.
PayPal just created customized HTML code for your PayPal button. Let's go ahead and click
on 'select code', and then head back to our Leadpages sales page. Under the widget menu,
locate where it says 'HTML' and drag-and-drop that widget where you want your PayPal button
to be.
Click on the widget, paste the HTML code we just copied from PayPal into the space provided,
and then click on 'save'. Now if we click on 'preview' on the top, right-hand side,
you'll be able to see your PayPal button with the Leadpages sales page in action. To make
this Paypal Leadpages integration active within this Leadpages sales page, click on 'publish'
on the top, right-hand side, and then on 'publish' again.
