Add PayPal to an Authorize.net pro form

I’m using Authorize.net for my on site credit card processing via pro-forms and I’d like to add PayPal (express) as an option next to the credit card options. I tried adding “paypal” to the shortcode (e.g. accept=”visa,paypal”) and that did not do the trick.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

Mark

Hello Mark.

That’s a great question.

No, this is not possible with pro-forms yet. It is something we want to do, though, and it’s in the features list we plan to add, although there isn’t a definite date for it yet.

I’ll take your question as a feature request for it.

For now, what you will have to do is create a separate pro-form for those that want to pay with their PayPal account.

Create a PayPal pro-form following the instructions on how to use Express Checkout only to not need PayPal Pro for it. http://www.s2member.com/faqs/#s2-faqs-paypal-pro-not-required

I hope that helps!

Right. Or, you could also generate a PayPal Button with s2Member, and make that available along with your Pro Form. That’s just another option for now, until we’ve integrated Pro Forms for Authorize.Net, directly with Express Checkout. If you’re running Pro Forms with a PayPal Pro account, this is already possible, but with Authorize.Net as your primary integration, you will need to add PayPal Buttons separately, for now please.
