PayPal for WooCommerce Multi-Account Management Setup Guide

by Drew | Last Updated Jul 12, 2020 | Published on Nov 22, 2017 | PayPal for WooCommerce Multi-Account Management | 174 comments

With the PayPal for WooCommerce Multi-Account Management plugin installed you are ready to begin creating accounts and configuring rules to specify when each account should be used.

NOTE:  If you need help installing the plugin refer to our install guide.

Setting Up Additional PayPal Accounts

By default, orders will be processed using the account you have configured in the Express Checkout gateway settings provided by the PayPal for WooCommerce plugin.  Here you will add additional account(s) with a rule that specifies when this account should be used instead of the default account.

1. Navigate to WooCommerce -> Settings

WooCommerce Settings

2. Click on the Multi-Account Management tab.

PayPal Multi Account Settings

3. Enter details for the PayPal account you are adding.

Enable Account
Check the box to enable the account if you would like it to take affect immediately.  You may enable / disable this option at any time by editing the account record after it has been created.
PayPal Sandbox
If you are setting up a sandbox / test account, check the box to enable sandbox mode for this account.

NOTE:  You will need to create a sandbox account for testing purposes if you wish to use sandbox / test mode.

Account Nickname
Enter a nickname for the account you adding so that you can easily tell all of the different accounts you add apart.

Example: You might call one account “Test Account” that is configured with the sandbox, and another account “Live Micro-Payment Account” for your actual PayPal account used for micro-payments.

PayPal Email

The PayPal account email address (or merchant ID) of the account that should be paid when this rule is triggered.

API Username / Password / Signature

If you would like to process refunds for transactions paid to secondary accounts, you will need to provide API credentials for the account.

You will need to populate these values with the API credentials provided by your PayPal account.

NOTE:  How to Create PayPal Username, Password, Signature.

NOTE:  Make sure to enter sandbox credentials if you are setting up a sandbox account, and live credentials for a live account.  These would not be the same.

Site Owner Commission

If you set a commission at the rule level, it will override any value set at the global level.

The site admin account (configured in the main PayPal for WooCommerce plugin) will be paid the commission amount calculated.

PayPal WooCommerce Multiple Accounts Commission

Trigger Conditions

Use the drop-down boxes to create a trigger that will control when this account should be used instead of the default account configured in the PayPal Express Checkout settings for your site.

 

Priority
  • If two or more accounts have the same trigger condition or match for a particular scenario, the account with the highest priority is selected for payment.

  • Priority values range from 0 (Lowest) to 100 (Highest)

  • For Example, assume that there are two rules in PFWMA, Account1 (Priority 10) and Account2 (Priority 60) where Account1 is set to trigger for Product A and Account2 is set to trigger whenever the buyer is from the country United States. Now, suppose that the buyer is buying Product A and their country in the United States. In this case, both the accounts qualify for payments. However, the order amount will be sent to Accoun2 as it has a higher priority value.

  • priority

User Role
  • Triggers the payment for the account whenever the Buyer is of the select role.

  • For Example, trigger payment to this account whenever the Buyer has the role of Wholesaler.

  • user role

Select Author
  • Triggers the item(s) payment for the account whenever Order includes items owned by the selected Author

  • For Example, Direct order payments to this account whenever a product belongs to the specified Author

    • Commonly used with vendor plugins like WC Vendors / Dokan, and themes based on “listings” where different users own different listings.

  • author role

Buyer Country
  • Triggers the payment for the account whenever the Buyer is from the selected country

  • For Example, trigger payments to this account whenever the Buyer is from the United States

  • buyer country

Store Country
  • Triggers the payment for the account whenever the item’s store location matches the selected country

  • For Example, trigger payments to this account whenever the Buyer is from the United States

  • store country

Shipping Class
  • Select the account for payment whenever a buyer chooses the specified shipping class

  • For Example, trigger payments to this account whenever a buyer chooses

  • shipping class

 

Product Categories
  • Triggers the item(s) payment for the account whenever the Order includes products from the selected categories.

  • For Example, trigger payment of item (s) whenever they belong to the Accessories category.

  • categories

Product Tags
  • Triggers the item(s) payment for the account whenever the Order includes products that consist of the selected tag(s)

  • For Example, direct all item(s) payments to this account whenever the item tags include “toys.”

  • tags

Products
  • Triggers the item(s) payment for the account for all the products in the Order that match the selected products

  • For Example, whenever an order includes a Fountain Pen, redirect the Fountain Pen’s payment to this particular account

  • products

Transaction Amount
  • Triggers payment to this account for all orders whose total is equal to, greater than or lesser than the specified amount.

  • For Example, trigger payment to this account whenever the total is less than $50

  • For Example, trigger payment to this account whenever the total is higher than $50

  • transaction amt

 

Currency Code
  • Triggers the payment to this account whenever the Buyer’s currency matches one of the selected countries.

  • For Example, trigger payment to this account whenever the Buyer currency is Dinar.

  • currency code

Card Type
  • Available only when the Payment Gateway selected for the account is PayPal Payments Pro 2.0 (PayFlow)

  • Triggers payment to this account whenever the Buyer is paying with the selected card type.

  • For Example, trigger payment to this account whenever the Buyer pays from their American Express card.

  • card type

 

EXAMPLE

PayPal WooCommerce Multiple Accounts

In this example, all products that belong to angelleye would be paid directly to that account.

4. Save the account settings.

Once you have all of the details filled in for the account you are setting up, click Save Changes to save the account.  You will then see the account in the list of accounts displayed below the form.

 

Site Admin Global Commission

As the site administrator, you can set a commission that you would like to be paid to your account.

The commission will be calculated based on the order details, and your admin account configured in the main PayPal for WooCommerce plugin will be used for the commission payment.

Any commission value set at the rule level will override the value set here.

PayPal for WooCommerce Multi Account Site Owner Commission

Edit an Existing Account

Below the form on the Multi-Account Management tab you will see a list of all accounts you have added.  Hover over any account in the list to reveal options for Edit and Delete.

PayPal for WooCommerce Multi Account Management Edit Delete

Edit or Delete an existing account configuration.

Split Payments Information

  • If more than one rule is triggered for a single order, the payment will be split between each receiver.
    • For more details on this, see our tutorial for How to Split a PayPal Payment on a WooCommerce Order.
  • If site owner commission is set at the global or rule level, this will be split and sent directly to the admin account configured in the main PayPal for WooCommerce plugin.
  • A single order can include up to 10 receivers, with the payment split so that all accounts are paid directly.
    • The site owner never touches the money.
  • For questions about refunds, see the Multi-Account refund procedures documentation.

Payment Load Balancer

The Payment Balancer Mode is a special mode in PayPal for WooCommerce Multi-Account Management plugin that spreads payments across all your configured PayPal accounts.

Starting from the Primary account set in the base PayPal for WooCommerce plugin, each order’s amount will be paid to the next PayPal account in the sequence.

For Example, if you set up the primary account in PayPal for WooCommerce (Account 1) and set up three (3) secondary accounts in PayPal for WooCommerce Multi-Account Management (Account 2, Account 3, and Account 4).

The orders will be processed in the following manner:

  1. Order 1 will be paid to Account 1.
  2. Order 2 will be paid to Account 2.
  3. Order 3 will be paid to Account 3.
  4. Order 4 will be paid to Account 4.
  5. Order 5 will be paid to Account 1.
  6. Repeat…

You can also see the sequence number tag on the account listing page:

Payment Sequence - PayPal for WooCommerce Multi Accounts Management

Enable Payment Load Balancer

To enable Payment Load Balancer, navigate to “WP Dashboard > WooCommerce > Settings > PayPal Multi-Account Setup”, click on the “Settings” tab and check the option “Payment Load Balancer”. After that, click on “Save Changes” to commit the changes to the database.

Payment Load Balancer - PayPal for WooCommerce Multi Accounts Management

Things to Consider when Using Payment Load Balancer

  • When the Payment Load Balancer option is enabled, other plugin features such as Commission and Condition Trigger rules will not be available.

  • On the Settings tab, options related to third-party plugins such as Dokan / WC Vendors, will also not be available in Payment Load Balancer mode.
  • If you have any existing accounts configured with custom trigger rules and commission settings, such attributes will be ignored, and the accounts will be paid as per the Payment Load Balancer sequence. More importantly, if you chose to disable Payment Load Balancer anytime, you should find that those custom attributes are still present, saving your time by not from having to reconfigure those accounts.

    Hello,

    I’m interested in purchasing this plugin but just wondering what control i have over the conditions set.

    For example, can I have change the PayPal account if the user is signed in as a wholesale_customer?

      As of the current 1.0.0 release the only condition trigger we have is based on the order amount. The original goal of this was to allow people selling both high dollar and low dollar items on the same site to utilize both Micro and Macro payment PayPal accounts to save money on fees. We definitely have plans to expand upon the condition triggers and allow for a lot more options and control over how to have payments sent to different accounts. In your example, would that be based on a specific role you have setup? That is something we could definitely do. Please provide a bit more details and I’ll get it on our roadmap for the next release!

      Good news! We actually went ahead and got this done already in our BitBucket repo! We added a condition trigger where you can specify a user role and a PayPal account so that any order completed by a user in that role will be processed by the specified PayPal account. We’ll get the updated posted within a few days, but if you want to place an order I can go ahead and get it to you right away.

      We are working on that now and plan to have it included in the next update. You will have the ability to create rules based on the buyer user role, individual products, categories, or product tags to specify which account should process the order. Should be ready within a couple of weeks.

Which feature specifically are you looking for?

    Hi there. This sounds very interesting. So I have two questions.

    1. Does this mean that we can set different PayPal Account for a different product? That would make total sense I think.

    2. Can it be used for Woocommerce Product Vendors plugin to avoid Paypal Mass Payment? For example if you have a membership site and don’t want to take cuts from sales of your members/vendors stores.

    • Andrew Angell
      Andrew Angell on March 9, 2018 at 2:30 pm

      Right now it’s only setup to use different accounts based on the price, but yes, we do have plans to release an update soon that adds additional options. You’ll be able to trigger different accounts based on products, categories, and a few other things. If you don’t need to take a cut/commission, then yeah, you could use this and eliminate the need for MassPay / Payouts.

        I think this feature would be fantastic. Just not sure if there is any limit, set by PayPal, to the number of accounts that are allowed to sell on one domain. Also, would members of certain PP accounts be able to set/add/edit products by themselves. Anyway, please contact me when you make this update. Thanks.

            My plan is to build a store based on Woocommerce Vendors plugin. As those are my colleagues, artists and designers, I don’t plan on taking percentage from them. Also I would like to avoid mass payments. I would like to allow them to publish product by themselves from the frontend. But right now the most important thing is that they can get payed directly to their PayPal account.

    Or is it possible to not enter any conditions and just have all Paypal accounts accessible on the checkout? In that way, it’s pretty easy to code our own business rules using the ‘woocommerce_available_payment_gateways’ filter.

          The dev branch is secure. It’s just not completely done with QA yet, so there could be some small bugs or user experience adjustments that we would need to make so that things are perfect. We’re just delayed on focusing on that review unfortunately. It’s a high priority for us, but we’ve had lots of other stuff going on lately keeping us from it. We’re almost there!

      Hi Lee, I’m very sorry for the delay. The update is done, but the release has been delayed behind other things. If you want to go ahead and submit the order then what we could do is get you a copy of the dev branch, which includes the additional functionality you’ve been waiting for. That way you don’t have to keep waiting on it even though we haven’t officially released the update yet. Otherwise, it really shouldn’t be much longer (although I know I’ve been saying that…sorry again.)

      Hi Vincent,

      The plugin that handles the payments would be our free PayPal for WooCommerce. This plugin is an extension to that plugin, so I just want to make sure you understand that first of all.

      With the PayPal for WooCommerce plugin you have lots of options for different PayPal gateways to enable on the site. I recommend Express Checkout w/ Smart Payment Buttons enabled. This will use an iFrame on top of your site. If you want direct credit card processing in addition to that you could also enable Braintree or PayPal Pro. Those would have to be approved and enabled on the account before you can use it with the plugin.

      If you have any questions or concerns about any of that you can submit a ticket to us directly and we can help you more.

    Hi – I’m looking to have a solution that will allow specific products to be purchased through a specific paypal account. Similar to two stores on one wordpress site. Products on page A will be purchased through paypal A and products on page B will be purchased through paypal B all in the same wordpress site. Furthermore, products on page A cannot be purchased through paypal B. Is this something that your module can handle? Thanks!

      Yes, it can do exactly that! What you would do in this case would be setup two separate product categories, and then each page can display products from the different categories. Our plugin can then be used to create rules that specify that orders for category A should be paid to PayPal A, and orders to category B should be paid to PayPal B. I think that would get you what you’re wanting. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about that. Thanks!

      I would recommend that you setup the main PayPal for WooCommerce plugin with the account you want to use as your primary account. So most orders would be paid to this account. For example, maybe everything that is not Canada shipping address would be paid to this primary account.

      Then within the multi-account tool you can create a rule where orders with CA shipping address are paid to a different PayPal account.

      This should give you what you’re after. If you continue to have troubles please submit a ticket to our help desk and we’ll get you taken care of.

      Right now it only works as an extension of our FREE PayPal for WooCommerce plugin, which uses Express Checkout. This is really recommended as it provides a lot more features and functionality than PayPal Standard provides. However, we do have plans to add PayPal Standard compatibility to this plugin. It may be a few months before we’re able to get that released, though.

    We are wanting to set up a system where users on our site with access to the backend can have their own paypal accounts set up for the products they add – can this plugin do something like that?

      Yes, it will do that, but you’ll have to configure it on your side, as the site admin. This isn’t designed as a full vendor platform where people can sign up as a vendor, create their own products, etc.

      You can setup products, and then you can create rules in the admin panel so that payments are sent to different PayPal accounts based on the product, category, or a variety of other variables you can create rules with.

      Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about that. Thanks!

    Not sure if this was asked before…I am looking for plugin where the order amount is split after the payment is done by the user. Like if the order was placed and payment made for $100, about 5% of the amount (say commission) i.e. $5 should be directed to one Paypal account (say my account) and the rest to the Paypal account of the main vendor/ dealer etc.

    The percentage of the commission can be changed with an option to setting the effective date or during the range of date periods.

    Does this plugin helps me in this?

      Yes, this plugin will allow you to do exactly that. You can set a global commission that would be applied to all orders. You could also set commissions for specific rules. So you could have a rule that pays 10% based on a specific product for example, and all other orders be at some global amount.

    Hi There, we are testing this with Dokan multivendor at the moment. We’re currently using Stripe and there’s an onboarding section in the front-end vedor’s shop setup where the vendor can connect to an existing Paypal account or create another with a redirect bringing them back to our site on completion of the form. Does this product have that function? If not is it relatively easy to set up?

      As it stands today, the site admin has to create rules in our Multi-Account plugin for each vendor. You can create rules based on Author ID (vendor ID) so that any product ordered will be paid directly to the vendor that owns it.

      In an update coming soon (should be within just a couple of weeks) we will have seamless integration with Dokan and WC Vendors. This way rules can be created in our plugin automatically based on the Vendor PayPal setup.

      Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about that. Thanks!

          Our plugin is an add-on to our free PayPal for WooCommerce plugin. It will not work with Stripe, as that’s an entirely separate plugin / payment gateway. We do support PayPal Pro (PayFlow), though, which gives you the same direct credit card processing option that Stripe gives you.

          Your memberships will be paid directly to you as usual. Our plugin will kick in when a rule is triggered during a checkout.

            Well, you could, but the Stripe orders would be handled by what the vendor plugin has built in, and our plugin could handle your PayPal paid orders. Yes, Author ID is what you set for your vendors. This rule will be created automatically when new vendors are approved if you’re using WC Vendors or Dokan. We plan to add WCFM before long.

      Hi Nicolas,

      I don’t fully understand the question. Reference Transactions aren’t required for the use of the Multi-Account plugin. That’s only if you’re trying to setup subscriptions / billing agreements for people. So again, that is not necessary to use this plugin in order to pay vendors directly. Yes, you can do that without keeping any commission if you want to.

      If you’re trying to use Subscriptions so that your vendors can subscribe to your site, and then sell items with no commission, then yes, you would need reference transactions enabled. This would be ideal, but if you can’t get approved for that, then there is another option.

      Some people use the Woo Payment Gateways per Product plugin. This will allow you to enable PayPal Standard only for the Subscription sign-up for vendors, and then you can use Express Checkout for all of the actual product orders so that you can use our multi-account functionality.

      Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about that.

      Thanks!

    This is a great plugin! Currently we sell items for two different artists and we have set up rules for each to receive payment for their respective sales. However, is it possible for one person to receive the amount paid for shipping regardless of whose product sells? Ex. Customer buys 2 items (on item from each artist), but Artist One actually fulfills the order and pays for the shipping for both items. Can Artist Two get paid for their sale while Artist One captures the shipping paid for the entire order?

      Drew on November 11, 2020 at 5:42 pm

      Glad you like it in general! We do have shipping classes built in, so at the product level it will use classes to send shipping amounts to specific accounts based on that. I’m not sure you’d be able to work that to do what you’re asking here, though. If classes aren’t involved, but there is shipping at the order level, it’s just going to divide that between the receivers on the order. To simply say “send all shipping no matter what to {account B}” is not something we have included yet. We do have that in our backlog, but just haven’t had enough demand for it yet to make it a priority.

      On that note, I’m going to add this to my GitCommits platform, and if you want to throw $5 or $10 or whatever you can afford at it, then we can also try to get others to contribute towards the bounty, and eventually some developer out there will decide to do the work for us. 🙂

        The delivery company requested us if there is a way to make only one invoice for every shipment. Because it want to make every “take” of product at a lower cost.
        For example 5 euro for order and then 1 euro for every other “take” of product from every merchant. So for an order with 3 products from 3 merchant we will have 7 (5 +1 +1) euro for shipment and not 5 +5 +5.

        For customers is an advantage the problem is that the delivery company don’t want to make 1 euro invoice but an invoice only to the first “merchant” that gets all the shipment payment.

        So the question is. There is a way to give all the shipment cost to the first merchant of every order?
        We have a budget to make this request working. We are also trying to understand how we can transformate the costs from 5+5+5 to 5+1+1 (probably attaching the euros to the single product and not to the seller) it’s a complex question.

        Thank you

      I’m sorry, but no. This is is an add-on extension of our free PayPal for WooCommerce plugin, which uses Express Checkout. This is an upgrade over PayPal Standard, and it includes a lot more features and functionality in general. Again, that part is free. Once you have that setup then you can add our Multi-Account plugin for that additional functionality. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about that.

      Thanks!

    Great plugin so far so good! All the microprocessor information is fantastic, however is it possible to push commissions over $10 dollars to one account and under $10 to another? That way if the commission is cheaper to send to one account, it will choose based on the threshold.

      I’m sorry, but we don’t have that many layers to this yet. We originally built the plugin for purposes of micro payments and other various multi-account scenarios. The handling of vendor sites and keeping commission was built in after that. Unfortunately, we don’t (yet) have that additional layer allowing you to setup 2 separate commission accounts. We plan to add it in the future, but it may be a few months. Sorry I don’t have a better immediate answer for you on that.

      Hi Rich,

      It supports it and works well in general. However, you’ll have to create rules for the vendors manually. If you have a bunch that wouldn’t be good. With Dokan and WC Vendors we have it setup to automatically create rules when vendors are added, but we don’t (yet) have that done with WCFM. We plan to add it, but it’s just a matter of demand and funding. I’m likely going to add it to https://www.gitcommits.com once our crowd-funding piece of that is ready (should be the end of this month) so that people like yourself can contribute funding towards it. At some point some developer out there will decide the total “bounty” is enough to complete the work and get paid the bounty.

      Would love your thoughts on that, and of course if you have any other questions or concerns about current functionality just let me know.

    We’ve got this installed and working swimmingly. Thank you for a great product. Moving forward, the client wants to add “monthly payments” as a payment option. As I’m sure you’re aware, there are limited extensions that provide that functionality and the “paypal express” is not one of them (i don’t think).
    Is it possible to add a different payment gateway in here (Stripe?), for the front end, but have this awesome plugin manage the distribution of funds on the back end?

      If you have a commission of 5% set, who pays the transaction fees. Does it come out of the 5% or does it come out of the vendors money?

      Does this plugin require you to be accepted to PayPal Payouts in order to go live?

      How many accounts can you have added? Can you have 1000+ vendors?

      Is this fully working with WCFM yet? Meaning set new rules automatically.

        Drew on May 25, 2022 at 3:08 pm

        Each receiver on the transaction will pay their own fee based on the amount they receive to their account. You can add as many accounts as you want. Yes, it will support 1k+, however, it’s not currently designed to easily manage that many from the UI. We’ll be improving this. It is not automating the rules with WCFM yet, but we are seeing more demand for this, so we’re hoping to get that done before much longer.

    Hi Drew, quick question regarding refunds/RMA requests, apologies if its been asked before or is in the FAQ’s, but i couldn’t seem to find it.

    If a buyer decides they wish a refund and activates the warranty function within Dokan, after vendor authorisation will the payments be refunded/reversed through paypal automatically? Or is there another process involved to generate a refund for the customer?

      Drew on January 19, 2021 at 5:42 am

      Unfortunately, no, that is not seamless right now. The vendor would have to refund directly from their own PayPal account. I know this is not ideal, but this plugin was not originally designed to be used this way, so it’s not fully integrated into every feature like that (yet). Here is some more info on the refund procedures: https://www.angelleye.com/paypal-for-woocommerce-multi-account-refund-procedures/

      Unfortunately, no. We could make that happen, but we don’t have a lot of demand for it right now, so we’d have to treat it like a custom project.

      We are currently working on integrating all of PayPal’s “Complete Payments” solution, which now includes “Advanced Credit Cards”, and we will be making that compatible. It would replace your Braintree account. We’re going to release the first round of this in the free plugin within a week or so, but then multi-account stuff will be following that up maybe a month or so later.

    Hi. This plugin looks very promising to what I’m working on. Just some additional questions:
    1) Is there a way to automatically assign rules for newly registered vendors on a directory listing website? I’m not using a multi-vendor website, just a directory listing site where vendors have their paypal email for receiving manual payouts. I want to automatically send the money directly from customers to vendors, instead of me doing manual payouts to vendors.

    2) If I have to use Dokan multi-vendor plugin, is the Dokan Free license sufficient to be compatible with your plugin to achieve the same purpose I mentioned above?

    3) If a customer requests for refund, is it the site admin or the vendors who processes the refund through your plugin? I imagine it will be the vendors since they’re the ones that received the money directly?

    Thanks a lot.

      1. If you’re working with vendors it would be best to use a vendor plugin. Our plugin is currently compatible with WC Vendors and Dokan, so it would automatically create records for you when vendors sign up through those tools. If you don’t want to use those then you would need to create rules manually. We could work with you to customize it to suit your needs, but I’d need you to submit a quote request for that please.

      Hi Yolanda,

      I’m sorry for the delay replying here. For future reference, it’s best to submit support tickets to our help desk at https://angelleye.com/support.

      Our plugin only supports “parallel payments”, which means the vendors get paid directly. This keeps you from being liable for any chargebacks, fraud, etc. that might occur, and is typically recommended over holding funds and disbursing them later.

      We do not support a “chained payment” which is what you’re asking about. Sorry I don’t have better news for you on that. Again, though, the primary reason people want to use our plugin is to avoid liability, which the parallel payment will help with.

      Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about that.

      Thanks!

    I think some of the setup fields have changed, for example: next to trigger conditions paypal multi-setup , I see Buyer Conditions, seller conditions, and common , but in the Docs it shows “Select Priority” which does not exist. Also the boxes and fields change some when using free Dokan or Pro Dokan. with something already complicated Matching support Docs would really help.

      If you have Billing Agreements enabled on your PayPal account then it will work for vendors to subscribe to your site. It will not support vendors creating and selling their own subscription products, though. We’re working on that.

          Hi Julian,

          Our plugin does not support the ability for vendors to sell subscription products. We’re working on it within our PayPal plugins in general, but we’re at the mercy of PayPal getting the features we need added to their APIs. They said Q4 last year and didn’t hit that. Now they’re saying Q2 this year.

          Until then, the best I can offer is our multi-account plugin for any non-subscription products that your vendors are selling.

          If you only need a subscription to process your vendor memberships so that they can sell on your site, then you could do that with a different gateway that supports Woo Subscriptions in general. Then use a plugin like “payment per product” to show that payment gateway on the vendor signup product, and our PayPal gateway on the vendor products.

          Hope that makes sense.

    Hi Drew,

    I am hoping that you can confirm that your PayPal for WC plus WC Multiple PayPal Accounts Plugins will solve a problem that a client has posed for me. The client has some products that are priced in Canadian dollars and others priced in US dollars. The CND$ products need to have their payments sent to the client’s Canadian PayPal account and their US$ products processed into their American PayPal account. The problem is that the client has customers in both countries that purchase both types of products so I cannot use the purchaser’s country to determine the correct currency or PayPal account. Is it possible to use your plugins, perhaps in conjunction with a global product attribute for currency, to handle this situation?

    Hi I am considering using Dokan Business service for a new marketplace but I understand if I use their integrated “Dokan paypal marketplace” gateway I have to apply thru paypal for their partner program and be approved.

    Do I need to apply through something similar with your plugin?

    Ideally, I would like it to be as simple as entering my (marketplace owner) paypal email address for commission, and for the vendor/seller to also just need to enter their own paypal email to be their amount of sale distributed.

    Is this how this works? Or do I need to apply through paypal or enter API, Client ID, Secret Key etc (how dokan paypal marketplace requires)

      With our plugin we are the partner and you would onboard into our app. However, we are not yet fully supporting the new Complete Payments platform. That’s coming very soon as we’re actively working on it. Until then, our plugin does support the Classic Express Checkout integration, and many people are using that successfully with Dokan. It’s a little bit limited, but it does the vast majority of most need – mainly sending payments directly to vendors so that you never touch it, but you can still collect a commission if you want to. For that you don’t need any special permissions at all.
