Paypal Integration
A challenging project from a client for PayPal was to integrate a Paypal payment gateway to carry out transactions from 20,000 subscribers. And that too which does not come up with any kind of error during the single transaction. This was going to carry out millions of dollars transaction through Paypal and with that much volume, it was needed to be taken extra care of with perfection!
Another requirement was not a straightforward transaction but a bidding mechanism where buyers can bid a certain amount for a particular product from their end against the seller’s price. And then sellers will again bid a particular price from their side to come closer to the deal and it keeps going till both parties comes on the mutual price. And when the price is accepted by the sellers, the amount will be deducted from buyers connected to Paypal and the order will be placed automatically.

The Problem
Bringing PayPal on board can be difficult in a variety of ways. Integrating a new payment method with security is a difficult task. The most difficult challenge that developers face is upgrading PayPal to a newer version. When potential buyers want to offer their portion of the price for your products and you don’t have plugins to accept that offer right away, you risk losing them. It is extremely difficult to implement a payment gateway when you have a multivendor mechanism. Even on your WooCommerce store, you find it a little difficult to manage your payment across the globe!
For straightforward transactions, it’s easy to transact as the price is fixed and the payment is going to be of the same one. But in this particular project, it was challenging to come up with a solution that would let the website do the transaction automatically on the particular final deal price.
Integrating Paypal with Dokan multivendor system also required sound technical detailing with custom coding. And integrating version 2 of PayPal is advanced level and hard to execute with any platform. That integration also needed to be carried out along with 3 other tasks.
The Solution
PayPal continues to build customer loyalty by keeping things simple. When you integrate PayPal into your company, you can prioritize improving the customer experience.
- Creating a custom plugin that lets customers and clients bid on their eCommerce platform was a hard nut to crack. We dived deep into the coding of payment integration with PayPal of such a platform. Direct bidding was not an option and once the offer has been accepted by the seller then only the payment trigger shall be sent to PayPal for the transaction. Our team came up with the solution that would make this possible and the client left happily with good reviews for us.
- CreedAlly implemented the Dokan system to include PayPal integration. You can easily handle payments for multi-vendor mechanisms with this integration. As a result, users can easily place orders from multiple vendors at the same time. This lets the customers place orders via Dokan multi vendors platform and make the payment via PayPal.
- PayPal integration can be done on any WooCommerce store by the default plugin by the WooCommece PayPal Gateway. But the client was looking for his own plugin which is capable of conducting billions of transactions and can give tough competition to WooCommece PayPal Gateway. Our team developed an alternative plugin to WooCommerce and it is running well with lots of transactions every day till the date.
- Integration of third-party payment gateways is one of the many issues many of our clients face. Our client had already set up PayPal as a payment gateway. As their traffic grows, they are finding it more difficult to use PayPal’s older version. Upgrading to PayPal’s latest version was not straightforward as it seems. CreedAlly took this challenging work on hand and successfully delivered the integration with proper testing.
CreedAlly successfully integrated PayPal payment gateways to handle over 20,000 subscribers. And the integration of various plugins that help in the processing of 1 billion PayPal transactions!
Clients who use PayPal to integrate see an increase in the number of potential customers. Increase their sales volume by approximately 40%. The conversion rate increased by 20%. Customer loyalty and trust in you are just icing on the cake as a result of this integration.
