Addon PayPal for Contact Form 7

Descrição

Addon PayPal for Contact Form 7 is the simplest way to add PayPal payment processing to any Contact Form 7 form on your WordPress site. Whether you’re collecting donations, service fees, booking deposits, or product payments, this plugin connects your forms to PayPal using just your PayPal email address — no complex API setup needed.

When a user submits your form, they are automatically redirected to PayPal to complete their payment. On successful payment, they are sent to a custom success page of your choice. You can also define a cancel URL for users who decide not to pay. All payment records are saved to your WordPress database and can be exported as a CSV file.

No coding or technical knowledge is required.
