ARForms – PayPal Addon v2.4

The ARForms – PayPal Addon v2.4 plugin allows you to seamlessly integrate PayPal payment functionality with forms created using ARForms, a popular WordPress form builder. This addon enables you to collect payments directly through PayPal when users submit their forms, making it ideal for businesses that need to charge users for products, services, or registrations.

Key Features

1. Seamless PayPal Integration
   • ARForms integrates smoothly with PayPal, enabling you to accept payments from users via PayPal once they submit a form.
   • Works with both PayPal Standard and PayPal Pro options, giving flexibility depending on your PayPal account and needs.
2. Custom Payment Amounts
   • You can set a fixed or dynamic payment amount depending on the form data. For example, you can set different payment amounts based on selected options or input fields in the form.
   • Variable Amounts: Payment amounts can be calculated dynamically based on form input (e.g., number of items selected or service chosen).
3. Multiple Payment Options
   • The addon allows you to create forms with multiple payment options, providing users with the flexibility to choose from different plans, products, or services.
   • You can have different payment options within a single form, allowing users to select the one that best fits their needs.
4. Easy Setup and Configuration
   • The PayPal addon is very easy to set up with ARForms. Simply input your PayPal API credentials (PayPal email, API username, password, and signature) into the ARForms settings, and you’re ready to start collecting payments.
   • Step-by-step instructions are available for setting up PayPal integration, making it user-friendly even for beginners.
5. Order Confirmation & Notifications
   • After a successful payment, users will receive an order confirmation email, confirming their payment and providing them with relevant details.
   • You can also set up admin notifications to alert you whenever a payment is made via PayPal through a form.
6. Customizable Payment Confirmation Page
   • Redirect users to a custom confirmation page after a successful payment or display a message on the same page. This helps you guide users to the next steps, such as viewing a receipt or accessing the service they paid for.
7. Payment Status Tracking
   • Easily track the status of payments. If the payment is successful, ARForms will mark it as completed; if there are issues, it will show as pending or failed.
   • ARForms integrates with PayPal IPN (Instant Payment Notification) to update the payment status in real time.
8. Multiple Currency Support
   • The addon supports multiple currencies, allowing you to accept payments in different currencies based on your location or the user’s preference.
   • You can set the default currency and switch between various currencies to suit your needs.
9. Refund Handling
   • If you need to refund a payment, you can do so directly through PayPal, and the payment status will be updated accordingly within ARForms.
10. Secure Payment Process

• Transactions are processed securely through PayPal’s trusted payment system, providing peace of mind for both you and your customers. PayPal handles the security aspects, including fraud detection, encryption, and compliance with financial regulations.

11. Custom Fields for Payment

• You can collect additional information from the user during the payment process (such as name, address, or custom form fields) and include it with the payment transaction. This is particularly useful for order forms, event registration forms, or donation forms.
