Creating a professional PayPal account (Test or Production)

  1. Create or use your PayPal merchant account.

    For PRODUCTION mode (live) :

    If you do not yet have a PayPal merchant account, create a PayPal Business account in live mode to accept real payments.

    For test mode (sandbox):

    The sandbox testing environment allows you to simulate the real PayPal environment to perform test payments (except for fund transfers, which are virtual).

    • To simulate the merchant, create a professional PayPal sandbox account to accept test payments.
    • To simulate the buyer, create a personal PayPal sandbox account to make test payments.

  2. Once your PayPal accounts have been created, contact sales administration to communicate the corresponding e-mail addresses.
Once the account is created, you can perform the following steps in production mode and/or test mode (optional):
  • Managing permissions
  • Activating the payment button PayPal Pay Later
