The PayPal Commerce Pro payment gateway extension for Easy Digital Downloads allows you to accept credit cards, debit cards, and alternative payments alongside PayPal on your WordPress sites.
With PayPal Commerce enabled for your online store, you’ll provide a higher converting, more secure checkout experience for your customers than previously offered by PayPal. It’s also much simpler and less technical to set up than in the past.
Enable On-site Checkout for Multiple Payment Modes
One of the most important areas to optimize for all eCommerce sites is the checkout experience. With the PayPal Commerce Pro extension, you can configure your checkout to show any combination of the following buttons:- PayPal wallet
- Debit or credit card
- Alternative payment methods (i.e. Sofort, iDEAL, giropay, etc.)
PayPal wallet payments keep your customer on your site without redirecting away to a PayPal page, which in itself can improve conversion rates. If the customer clicks the PayPal button, a modal popup will appear to prompt them to log in to their PayPal account and complete their purchase.
If the debit or credit card button is clicked, inline card fields will be displayed for the customer to complete.
Alternatively, the debit or credit card fields can also be configured to be displayed on the page immediately without an extra button click.
Note that the ability to display non-branded credit card/debit card fields directly on the page is currently subject to these country and currency limitations and an account evaluation by PayPal.
