Description
The PayPal Checkout addon adds a PayPal and credit card payment button to WS Form forms, processing the charge on the client side and recording the transaction ID with the submission. It is geared toward those who charge registrations, donations, orders with dynamically calculated amounts, or one-off purchases directly from a form, without needing a WooCommerce cart or separate e-commerce platform.

Who Should Use PayPal Checkout?
- Those who collect donations, registration fees for events, or subscriptions through a site form.

How to Download PayPal Checkout
The PayPal Checkout is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin in the WordPress dashboard, select the file and activate. The addon then appears in WS Form action options, alongside other builder gateways.
For those already using WS Form as the primary form builder, PayPal Checkout closes the loop between data capture and settlement in the same flow, eliminating external integrations via Zapier or redirects to payment pages. The client-side processing of PayPal keeps the user on their page until the end of the purchase, and the transaction ID stored in the submission simplifies checking paid orders in the dashboard.
