paypal integration

  1. I have the business licence for gravity forms and have a question with regards paypal. I have created an online cv form that my client wants people to fill in and have 4 different levels of payment (with different prices). She then wants to be able to offer other add on products like a cover letter etc

    My question is whether or not i need to get the developer license to do this and if so is it fairly straightforward to do

    Many thanks

    If you want to use Paypal, then I would recommend getting the Developer license to be able to use our Gravity Forms Add-on. As for the various levels of payment, you can easily accomplish this using products and options fields. It should be relatively straightforward, but it might take a bit to figure it out. We will be here though to help you if you run into any snags.

  4. Gavin, the main differences between PayPal and PayPal Pro is:

    With the standard PayPal Add-On, upon submission the user is directed to PayPal to complete their purchase.

    With the PayPal Pro Add-On, they would enter their credit card information right on the form itself (via the credit card field) and not leave the site. This does require you to have a valid PayPal Pro account and also a secure certificate on your site as it processes the credit card right there.
