Activating PayPal Powered by Braintree on ShopWired

To activate PayPal Powered by Braintree select Checkout > Payment Gateway from the menu. In the 'Other Payment Gateways' section find the gateway from the drop-down list under 'Payment Gateway':

Then select add this gateway. The section to add PayPal Powered by Braintree will appear above the 'Other Payment Gateways' section:

Select Connect with Braintree. In the window that opens you can either login to an already existing Braintree account, or you create a new account if you don't already have one.

Once you have either logged in or finished signing up for an account, you'll be returned to the ShopWired platform.

SSL Certificate

If you use the PayPal Powered by Braintree payment gateway you'll need an SSL certificate on your website.

Settings

Once you have activated the gateway, there are a number of settings you can configure within your ShopWired account.

Basic settings:

Use the tick box beside each setting to determine if the setting should be active.

Advanced settings:

Use the advanced settings to determine your settings for vaulted cards, to determine where the PayPal payment button should be activated and to customise the look of the PayPal button on your checkout page. Additionally, you can optionally enter the Merchant ID for which of your merchant accounts Braintree should use to process a transaction. If you don't specify a merchant ID, Braintree will use your default merchant account.

When you change any of your settings make sure to save your changes afterwards. (If making a change in advanced settings, you will first need to close the advanced settings.)

If you need support with any of these settings, please contact us or the PayPal Powered by Braintree support team.
