Button position
If you scroll down the settings page, you will find a section to configure the button that lets your users checkout quickly using PayPal Express Checkout service.
You will find four checkboxes. You can enable one, two, three or all of them at the same time.
- Enable PayPal checkout on the cart page: check this option if you want the button to appear on Cart page, so that your users can skip the checkout step and pay directly through PayPal checkout.
- Enable PayPal checkout on single product page: check this option to let your customers choose PayPal Express Checkout mode right on the product page. Please, note that if they’ve added any other items to the cart, this button will only allow them to buy the single product they are viewing. This allows them to buy the product immediately without risking to buy other items they haven’t reviewed yet.
Please, note: if users choose to buy it immediately and complete the checkout successfully, their cart will be emptied, even if they had added any different items before. If they do not complete the checkout, they will be able to find all the items they had already added to the cart and go on with the shopping.
