PayPal Checkout requires that you create a business or premium account. After creating an account, you may link it to the plugin in your Flynax website and start using it. Once you enable the plugin, your users will be able to pay for services on your website using PayPal checkout.
Keep in mind that your users do not need to have a PayPal account in order to make a payment, PayPal checkout works with major credit/debit cards and the entire payment process happens on your website without the user’s need to navigate to PayPal’s website.
