PayPal Integration

Overview

PayPal integration is normally used in conjunction with eBay order book integration. The functionality allows you to

• Download payments made by PayPal for product/services or an invoice outside of eBay channel.
• Update eBay order with PayPal shipping address and any payment notes entered during the checkout process

Please note that PayPal alone (without eBay) is not enough to obtain accurate information about items bought on eBay, as it does not include individual item costs and selected postal service.
