Take PayPal at checkout
Your PayPal, not ours
Shoppers pay into your own PayPal business account through your own PayPal app. The money is between you and PayPal. We never touch it.

Make a REST app in PayPal
In PayPal's developer dashboard, create an app and copy its Client ID and Secret.
Open Settings · Payments
Owners with the authenticator app. Choose Live or Sandbox.
Paste both and Save
PayPal is asked first. A refused key is shown on the Secret box and nothing is kept.
At checkout
If you take cards and PayPal, shoppers choose Card or PayPal. PayPal alone works too. They approve on PayPal's own page and come back; the order is counted paid only when PayPal confirms the capture for exactly the amount due.
Refunds
Refund an order from the admin and it goes back through PayPal.
