 through Configuration > Payment.

To add PayPal gateway service as a payment option;

1.

, and then 

2.

Click on the drop-down Payment Gateway box, select PayPal and click Add.

3.

Enter the Merchant ID for your PayPal account (e-mail address). PayPal Instant Payments require
a verified business account. The PayPal e-mail address must also be the primary e-mail address for
the PayPal account.

 If the PayPal account ID set within

AShop is a verified business account address, but is not THE primary e-mail address for the PayPal
account, PayPal will accept the payment, but the response codes from PayPal will list the primary
address instead of the one that is set in AShop. As part of the product file download security, the order
will not be recorded and a password is not generated unless the addresses match EXACTLY.  The
PayPal IPN system is case sensitive, which means that the email address must set in AShop exactly
as it is set for the PayPal account. For example: yourname@yourdomain.com is NOT the same as
YourName@yourdomain.com.

4.

The SSL URL to logo image is for the logo that is displayed within the PayPal secure payment
forms and receipts. If you don't have access to SSL, leave this blank for the PayPal logo to appear
at the upper left of the PayPal pages. You may enter the URL to a logo image that is not SSL, but
an annoying message will appear between each PayPal page to alert your customer that there are
secure and non-secure files being loaded.

5.

Instant Payment Notification (IPN) must be turned on within your 

settings for orders to be completed and notices to be sent by AShop after payment is received!
Login to your PayPal account and select Profile, then select Instant Payment Notification
Preferences. Check the box to activate IPN and enter the URL to your order.php script. For
example; http://www.your_domain/ashop/order.php

Note: AShop resets the payment response code URL for each transaction when the PayPal payment
window is first opened. This overrides the URL that is set within the PayPal account settings so that
multiple installations of AShop can use the same PayPal account.

·

Collecting the customer's phone number when using the PayPal payment option is possible
through a setting in the PayPal account. After logging in at paypal.com, click profile, click website
payment preferences, select "contact telephone on (optional field)" and finally click save.

·

Set the language in the PayPal payment page by adding an extra field parameter in the admin/
gateways/paypal.gw. Add the lc parameter as a hidden field in the section $gw_extrafields. ("lc" is
abbreviation for locale.)
Example, to set American English language, add the following.

<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"lc\" value=\"US\">";

Here are a few lc values supported by PayPal:
DE = German
ES = Spanish
FR = French
