Easy Way To Setup PayPal Payment Integration in Bit Form

Admin can receive One-time Payment & Subscription Payment through the PayPal field. Bit Form now allows you to use PayPal fields instead of the submit button. So, when admins use PayPal, they can remove the default submit button from the form. When a user clicks on the PayPal button, the form first validates all the form input and then opens the payment window.

Create PayPal Config​

1. Navigate to the Bit Form dashboard. Then go to App Settings & click on Payments.

2. Click on PayPal.

3. At first, set a suitable integration name on the Integration Name field

4. Here, we will select Sandbox as the transaction mode.

5. Admin has to create an application from the PayPal site. For that login to your PayPal account & select My apps & credentials.

5. There are two types of apps – Sandbox Mode & Live mode. For the demonstration purpose we have selected Sandbox an app. You have to select Live for the real-time transaction.

6. After that, there is a default application created by PayPal itself. You can also create a new one from the Create App option. Now, follow the path to get your Client Id:

Set App Name => Select App Type => Click on Create App => Get Client ID.

7. Now, copy the client ID, and client secret & go back to the Bit Form PayPal settings page. Then paste it on the Client Id and client secret fields.

8. Complete the PayPal config settings by clicking on Save button.

Add PayPal To You Form

Field Customization of PayPal Payment Integration

Field Key: In Bit Form, every field has a special identifier known as a Field Key. This field key uniquely identifies a field, it also helps to send data via email, PDF, store database, and PHP action hook. These keys are important in Success/Error Messages, WebHooks, Redirect Pages, Email Templates, Workflows, and Integrations.

Name: The Name is an HTML equivalent input field’s name, you can customize it easily according to your preferences. You can easily modify it to suit your needs.

A field’s name is like a special label used when you submit a form. For example, let’s say the field name is “paypal-1-8”. In this case, ‘paypal’ tells us the type of field it is, ‘1’ refers to the form ID, and ‘8’ means it’s the fourth-number field on the form. This field name can be used for various purposes such as Fetch data from url parameter.

PayPal Accounts: Select the PayPal account you want to use for collecting payments. You can connect with multiple PayPal accounts and choose the one you prefer.

Subscription Payment​

Subscription: For subscription payments, you need a business account. Just add your Plan ID on the field & you are ready to take the payment via PayPal.

One-Time Payment​

Language : You can set the field language according to your preference.

Disable Card : You can set the card name on the disable card field from which you don’t want to take payment.

Amount Type

✔ Fixed : If admin want to set a limit of payment, they have to choose this option. As example, you have created a form for a particular sale. Then you have to set the payment digit on the field.

✔ Dynamic : For dynamic payment admins have to add a Number field or Radio Button where you can add an amount according to your willingness.

Shipping Cost & Tax amount type: As likely as Amount type option admin can set Fixed / Dynamic Shipping cost as well as Tax.

Currency: You can set 26 currency type.

Hidden: This option allows you to make the field hidden when the form is displayed on the front end.

After setting up PayPal, click the Update button at the top-right corner.
