Overview
This tutorial uses the following plugins which will be required in order to complete the process.
- PayPal for WooCommerce
- PayPal for WooCommerce – Multi-Account Management
Using these plugins, we will setup multiple PayPal accounts on a single WooCommerce store, and we will process an order where separate item payments are split into separate PayPal accounts based on rules that we create.

You’re Ready to Rock!
We have successfully configured a primary account in the main Express Checkout plugin, and secondary accounts in the Multi-Account plugin.
Now we can submit an order that will trigger both rules and see how the PayPal payment gets split between the two.
Add Both Items to the Shopping Cart
Checkout with PayPal
Order / Payment Details
The order details in WooCommerce show two separate transaction IDs because the payment was split between two separate PayPal accounts.
We Can Also See Separate Transactions in the Individual PayPal Accounts
