The PayPal Payflow Payment Gateway for the GetPaid (formerly Invoicing) WordPress plugin is a premium extension that allows you to accept credit card payments directly on your website without redirecting customers to PayPal.
This is EXACTLY the same product as distributed by the developer. Sales Page
On-Site Checkout: Processes payments directly on your WordPress site, providing a seamless user experience.
Transaction Types: Supports both one-time fees and recurring payments (subscriptions).
Fraud Management: Includes settings to handle orders flagged by PayPal’s fraud filters (e.g., “Proceed” or “Hold for Review”).
Sandbox Mode: A dedicated testing environment to verify credentials and flow before going live.
Global Reach: Supports multiple currencies and is available for merchants in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
To use this extension, you must have a PayPal Payflow Pro or PayPal Payments Pro account. You will need the following credentials from your PayPal Manager dashboard:
Partner: Usually “PayPal” or your authorized reseller ID.
Vendor: Your merchant login ID.
User: Your sub-user ID (often the same as your Vendor ID).
Password: The password associated with the User/Vendor account.
Unlike the built-in “PayPal Standard” gateway included with GetPaid:
No Redirects: Customers never leave your website to finish the payment.
Higher Conversion: Reducing the number of steps and off-site hops generally leads to lower cart abandonment.
PCI Responsibility: Because you are collecting card data on your site, you must ensure your server is secure (though Payflow helps simplify compliance by transmitting the data securely to PayPal).
