PayPal¶
Paypal is an American online payment provider available worldwide, and one of the few that does not charge a subscription fee.
Nota
While PayPal is available in over 200 countries/regions, only a selection of currencies are supported.
Settings in PayPal¶
To access your PayPal account settings, log into PayPal, open the Account Settings, and open the Website payments menu.
Importante
Note that for PayPal to work in Odoo, the options Auto Return, PDT, and IPN must all be enabled.
Retorno Automático¶
The Auto Return feature automatically redirects customers to Odoo once the payment is processed.
From Website payments, go to and select On. Enter the address of your
Odoo database (e.g., https://yourcompany.odoo.com
) in the Return URL field, and
Save.
Nota
Any URL does the job. Odoo only needs the setting to be enabled since it uses another URL.
Payment Data Transfer (PDT)¶
PDT allows to receive payment confirmations, displays the payment status to the customers, and verifies the authenticity of the payments. From Payment data transfer and select On.
, scroll down toDica
PayPal displays your PDT Identity Token as soon as Auto return and Payment Data Transfer (PDT) are enabled. If you need the PDT Identity Token, disable and re-enable Payment data transfer to display the token again.
Notificação Instantânea de Pagamento (IPN)¶
IPN is similar to PDT, but allows for more notifications, such as chargeback notifications. To enable IPN, go to Choose IPN settings. Enter a Notification URL, select Receive IPN messages (Enabled), and Save.
and clickPayPal Account Optional¶
We advise not to prompt customers to log in with a PayPal account upon payment. It is better and more accessible for customers to pay with a debit/credit card. To disable that prompt, go to On for PayPal account optional.
and selectFormato de Mensagens de Pagamento¶
If you use accented characters (or anything other than primary Latin characters) for customer names or addresses, then you must configure the encoding format of the payment request sent by Odoo to PayPal. If you do not, some transactions fail without notice.
To do so, go to your production account. Then, click More Options and set the two default encoding formats as UTF-8.
Dica
For Encrypted Website Payments & EWP_SETTINGS error, please check the Paypal documentation.
Configure your Paypal Sandbox account, then follow this link to configure the encoding format in a test environment.

If you are trying PayPal as a test, using a PayPal Sandbox account, change the State to Test Mode. We recommend doing this on a test Odoo database rather than on your main database.
Extra fees¶
You can charge extra fees to customers choosing to pay with PayPal in order to cover the transaction fees PayPal charges you.

Traders in the EU are not allowed to charge extra fees for paying with credit cards.
