PayPal Payouts

You can view the amount of funds that have been sent to your PayPal account from your Income tab by selecting the Question Mark icon above your Total Revenue.

When you log in to your PayPal Business account, you'll be able to see these transactions. Here's how that looks in PayPal:

Using PayPal and Stripe

You can connect PayPal, Stripe, or both! If both are connected, your customers will see both options at checkout:

If only one is connected, that’s the only payment option your customers will see:

• Stripe only = credit/debit card checkout
• PayPal only = PayPal checkout

PayPal's Credit/Debit Option

If you're using PayPal only but want customers to pay with a card, they still can! At checkout, if your customer selects Pay with Debit or Credit Card, they will be directed to checkout with PayPal as a guest.
