Paypal Integration to Webflow

Community resources General

Hi guys,

I am new to Webflow. I have built a website using Webflow general - not Ecommerce.

I would like to integrate paypal and to accept payments on my website using paypal.

Is that possible with Webflow general - not Ecommerce? And also, because it is a one page site - can it be integrated so that when a customer click on a button that I have created it gets redirected to Paypal checkout page? I mean I want to use my one button and not the paypal bottons.

Thank you.

Yeah sure why not. As long as the paypal API supports external buy buttons I don’t see this being a issue. Check out the paypal api docs and give it a try.

One more thing - can it also be used as subscription button - since my only button to accept payment would be a subscription and I would like to make it recurrent payment.
I know that it would be easier to use Memberstack and Stripe for the matter, but Stripe is not acceptable for my country. So do you think all of it can be integrated and automated so that when I customer click to Get Started/Subscribe - he then gets redirected to Paypal checkout page in order to pay and then he is subscribed?

Hi @Kevin_Lastardzhiev.
Josh with Foxy here. What you’re after is possible with our seamless Webflow integration: https://foxy.io/webflow Connect a Webflow form or button to a Foxy payment/subscribe link and then enable PayPal as your gateway.

We support both one-time and recurring products as well as an integration with PayPal and 100+ other payment methods/gateways.

All that said, integrating a 3rd party ecommerce platform may be overkill (unless you have other needs you haven’t mentioned
 ie: paygating content). You might look at simply setting up a PayPal subscribe button: How do I create a Subscription Button? | PayPal US

Hi Josh,

I’m a bit confused and hoping you can clarify from the Foxy side.

Webflow documentation and forum posts indicate that PayPal is available for Indonesia, and PayPal itself supports Indonesia (I have an active PayPal Indonesia account). However, in Webflow Ecommerce, I’m blocked with the message “store currency is not supported by PayPal”, even though Indonesia is listed as supported.

Given that:

  • My store is based in Indonesia

  • I’m not able to use Stripe

  • I do want to accept PayPal payments or Indonesian payment methods

Can you confirm:

  1. Whether Foxy + Webflow works for stores based in Indonesia

  2. Whether PayPal can be used as the payment gateway through Foxy without Webflow Ecommerce limitations

  3. Whether store currency (IDR) is supported, or if Foxy requires a specific setup

I’m currently considering a custom checkout flow (Webflow form → payment) and want to confirm Foxy is a viable option for an Indonesia-based store.

Thanks in advance!

I can confirm that integrating PayPal with a non-Ecommerce Webflow site is possible. To achieve this, you will need to add your PayPal account information to Webflow. Then, you can use the “Embed” feature to insert a PayPal button on your site.

However, if you want the button to redirect users to the PayPal checkout page when clicked, you may need to use the “Redirect URL” feature provided by PayPal, in combination with some custom JavaScript code in Webflow to handle the button click event. I would recommend checking out Webflow’s documentation for more information on how to set this up.

Good luck!

Hi @morlaangelia.
Hope you’re doing well. All of my references show that PayPal Complete Payments supports merchants in Indonesia. We support the IDR currency, so no issues there either.

Face value, you should be good to use Foxy + PayPal, integrated into your Webflow site (without Webflow limitations).

We can even help you run a live Foxy + PayPal order to ensure everything will work as expected before spending time setting things up.

Thanks,
Josh

Hey Foxy,

Since you’ve confirmed that PayPal Complete Payments supports merchants in Indonesia and that you support the IDR currency, it is likely that the issue lies with Webflow’s Ecommerce limitations, as Peterson23 mentioned. We should investigate further to see if there is a specific setup or configuration required in Foxy to bypass these limitations. Are you able to try using the ‘Embed’ feature to insert a PayPal button on your site and see if that resolves the issue?

Hi @Peterson23.
In Foxy, you simply connect to your PayPal account in your Payment Settings. Then in your locale settings, specify currency. You should then be able to run an order to confirm successful connection.

Thanks,
Josh

Hey Foxy,

Webflow’s Ecommerce limitations might be the issue here. Can you confirm if you are using any Webflow Ecommerce features that could be conflicting with the Foxy + PayPal integration?

Hi @Peterson23.
I think there may be some confusion on this thread. We are Foxy. Our PayPal integration is not limited by Webflow Ecommerce limitations. They are completely different integrations.

Foxy integrates with Webflow (without the need for Webflow Ecommerce). Hope this helps clarify things. Here to help if anyone has follow up questions: hello@foxy.io

Thanks,

Hey foxy, you can basically turn any Webflow CMS item into a product. All you have to do is map your fields to Foxy data attributes. It keeps things flexible since you have full control over your CSS and interactions. Plus, you won’t be stuck with the usual native e-commerce limitations.
