When I Design my Ecommerce Web Page Should I use PayPal Pro or Standard

[designedbylucas]

If you designed your website and now you want to add ecommerce capabilities to your web pages you will find that Pay Pal can be of great help. PayPal offers several different methods that will help you provide your web site with ecommerce functions and in this section we are going to talk about two options;

1. PayPal Standard
2. PayPal Pro

But in order to do this we will create a scenario. Let say that you have a brand new website designed and now you want to be able to sell a product through it. You only have2 to 3 products and all you need are for your clients to be able to click on a link and buy your products using a credit card of their choice.

PayPal standard offers a solution for your needs; when you logging to your PayPal administration you will be able to create a button for each one of your products in your website. Using a code generated by PayPal you will find it very simple to add the code to your HTML in your website and integrate a Pay button for each product you have. Once your visitor decides to buy your product he will click on the Pay button by PayPal and he will then be redirected to a special billing web page by PayPal where all the transaction will take place.

This is the standard PayPal system. Now for the Pro version here is the difference; your designer will need to create a payment form just like the ones that other stores use at the end of a check out. This form is the one where your visitor will type his name, address and credit card number and then the form will communicate with PayPal and here comes the beauty of this system; everything will happen in your own website. Unlike the standard system, your visitors once they decide to buy your product they will be redirected to an external page out side of your website. With the Pro version your transaction is handled from and inside of your own website. Of course, there are more expenses in this option since you need to have a developer integrate the form with PayPal and also you need to pay a monthly fee to PayPal for using their 3rd party merchant account system.

id use the standard one unless u aite is huge. then u can get like a discount. and also the business one is expensive. credit cards are useless anyways. everyone wants to pay automatically through paypall or send a check in the mail. just saying. everyone hates using credit cards online. they are made for the grocery store and non online stores anyone everyone hates entering their pin and having things like that. paypall is an outrage. its not only inconvenient it is expensive for businesses. its much easier to make your own form of payment hen use some brands. plus, if you buy with paypal they take so much out its greater than 3 percent ive read and not only that paypall is disgustingly promoting there site s easy and s=all that. its so hard. they have so much problems. paypall is rediculous. people hate paypal theyd much rather send cold hard cash in the mail. forreals.
