WooCommerce PayPal Pro Credit Card Payments
PayPal Payments Pro gives you everything you need to securely accept credit cards and debit cards on your website.
It offers a secure payment experience with complete customization ability over your customers’ checkout process; and an Internet merchant account from PayPal.
Therefore, Payments Pro is ideal for businesses that want complete control over the checkout experience.
Our plugin makes it work with WooCommerce and customers can pay by credit card without ever leaving your website.
NOTE: – Fully supports both “Website Payments Pro” and “PayFlow Pro”.
PayPal Payments Advanced
Payments Advanced is a cheaper alternative to Payments Pro which ties PayPal and credit card payments into an i-frame on your website’s checkout page.
As such, this eliminates the need to worry about PCI compliance and is roughly half the price of PayPal Payments Pro.
NOTE: Payments Advanced is no longer being approved for new merchants. However, if you already have it active on your account our plugin will still support it.
WooCommerce PayPal Gateway REST Credit Card Payments
PayPal’s new REST API adds the ability to process credit cards on the site without the need for PayPal Payments Pro.
This means no more monthly fees for processing credit cards directly! This is essentially the exact same thing that Stripe offers with their credit card processing features.
- A REST-full API that gets you taking payments very quickly with no monthly fees.
NOTE: Direct REST CC has been replaced by PayPal Advanced CC in the new Complete Payments gateway. This “Classic REST” option is no longer being approved for merchants. However, if you already have it active on your account our plugin will still support it.

PayPal Branded Payments Transaction Fee
3.59% + 49¢ per transaction
Includes the following payment methods:
IMPORTANT NOTE
The fees displayed are the result of the PayPal US rate + the Angelleye commission of only 0.1%.
At Angell EYE, we believe in honesty, fairness, and transparency, especially when it comes to our pricing. We understand that the nuances of payment processing fees can be confusing, so let us break it down for you.
When you use our plugin to process payments, you'll continue paying whatever rate you've negotiated with PayPal, whether that's for PayPal Wallet transactions or for credit card processing.
What we do add is a small commission of 0.1% per transaction. This is our fee for the added value and capabilities our plugins provide.
To make this more clear, if your rate with PayPal is 3.49% for wallet transactions or 2.59% for credit card transactions, then with our plugin, you would pay an all-inclusive rate of 3.59% or 2.69% respectively.
However, it's important to note that your rates with PayPal may vary based on your own agreements. So, the key takeaway here is this: you will always pay your established PayPal rate plus our flat 0.1% commission.
This approach keeps your fees typically lower than with our competitors, and more importantly, keeps pricing simple and transparent.
The Angell EYE Advantage
We at AngellEYE are PayPal specialists. We have developed a very close relationship with PayPal over the past 20+ years.
- Ace Certified PayPal Developer
- PayPal Partner
- PayPal Ambassador
- 3-time PayPal Star Developer Award Winner
Rest assured that when you’re working with AngellEYE PayPal plugins your payments will work as expected.
In addition, everything between WooCommerce orders and PayPal’s transaction details will be seamless.
Therefore, you will not find yourself confused when looking at orders in one place or the other because the same data is available in each location.
Quality Control and Seamless PayPal Integration
Our developers have built and tested this plugin thoroughly in the PayPal sandbox.
Firstly, we have ensured that all necessary data passes to PayPal with clean and accurate details. In additional, we verify that all data passes to correct fields that PayPal provides.
Therefore, all order details will show up in PayPal as expected, and all data about orders will match. This is true whether you’re looking at PayPal transaction details or WooCommerce order details.
The following outline describes just a few things that we found wrong with other plugins that we’ve done correctly with ours.
Error Handling
- Many (in fact, all) of the other PayPal extensions I’ve seen have some serious issues regarding error handling.
- One example is with Payments Pro, where you can have Fraud Filters configured in your PayPal account.
- Orders could raise a flag and trigger a filter, however, the payment still completes successfully and the buyer should see the order complete page.
- In many cases, these end up getting treated as failures, the buyer is shown an error, and could potentially end up processing multiple payments if they continue re-trying.
- This sort of crucial error handling problem will not happen with our plugin!
Cart Items
- All cart item details pass fully to PayPal and show up correctly in PayPal’s transaction details.
- All items will always pass.
- You will not find truncated item names in the PayPal transaction details.
- The WooCommerce SKU is correctly passed to PayPal as the Item Number.
- Item Attributes
- We’ve seen all sorts of crazy ways people try to handle item attributes (ie. color, size, etc.)
- All attributes will append to the item name with our plugin so that they can be easily seen in the PayPal tranaction details.
- You will not find item attributes being passed in random fields like other plugins.
Cart Totals
- With our plugin, all cart totals calculate accurately and are sent correctly over to PayPal.
- You will not find any “rounding issue” items popping up on your orders when using our plugins like you do with “official” plugins.
- Subtotal, shipping, handling, taxes, and grand total amounts calculate and pass to PayPal accurately and in their correct parameters.
Discount Codes
- We’ve ensured that all discount codes applied to an order are correctly passed over to PayPal.
- This allows you to see each individual code that a customer uses, its amount, and its actual code value.
Shipping
- If shipping is available on the WooCommerce cart page, this will be passed to PayPal for review during checkout.
- If the address changes during review, the shipping and tax will be re-calculated.
- The PayPal request includes the shipping address, so that it will show up in the PayPal transaction details page accurately.
URL Encoding
- All data passed to PayPal is correctly URL encoded and formatted per specified standards.
- You will not have problems where you see a bunch of special characters included with your transaction data.

I used this plugin for ~2.5 to 3 years.
Initially, the plugin was good, but I noticed a decline in quality sometime in 2023. This started with occasional smaller and larger bugs after updating to a new version.
However, whenever I opened a support ticket, Drew always replied within 24 to 48 hours, and his responses were consistently helpful, resolving the issues fairly quickly.
After a while, I noticed (at least in my perception) that issues became more frequent after updates.
In 2024, I started experiencing an “Invalid Resource ID” issue. The occurrence was rare and random, and Drew couldn’t pinpoint or recreate the issue to fix it. Since it didn’t significantly affect my business, I hoped it would eventually be resolved.
Around this time, I also noticed that the response time had slowed considerably, and Drew hired additional staff to handle support tickets.
Fast forward to August 2024: The “Invalid Resource ID” issue still persisted on my site, and it started to occur more frequently, impacting my business. I lost at least three orders in the past few days.
After submitting another ticket with detailed information, logs, and even a video, I didn’t hear back from them for almost a week now and I’m sure it will take at least a couple more days until they reply.
I still don’t know whether this was a site-specific issue affecting only my site or a broader (rare) problem, as the support was practically non-existent.
Today, another customer contacted me, and after checking, I was unable to establish a connection to PayPal myself (sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn’t). As a result, I decided to switch plugins.
Drew is a skilled developer, but in my opinion, something changed over the past 1-2 years, leading to the deterioration of both the plugin and the support.
I may consider using the plugin again in the future, but in its current state, it has become unusable on my website, with the current state of the support and code.
I gave 2 stars, because I was satisfied in the past.

Extremely complicated to use.
Drew (store manager) –
Hi Abdelhamid,
I’m sorry you were having troubles. What exactly was complicated about it?
We do provide lots of documentation, and we also offer 50% off our premium support when setting up if you would like me to work with you directly and teach you how it all works.
Did you submit a ticket with our help desk? We’re happy to help you figure out any confusion you may have had.
Please let me know what was complicated for you so that we can adjust accordingly. Thanks!

This plugin almost works very well but it has 2 main issues:
1. If you choose the “Authorize” option instead of immediate “Capture”/”Sale”, it won’t automatically capture the authorized payment later on when an order reaches a given state (e.g. completed). The woocommerce built-in paypal option has this feature and it’s essential otherwise you’ll have to manually go in and capture every pre-authorized payment yourself.
2. When you do an authorization first and then later the capture goes through…it DOES show the new capture record on the order’s edit page, however it DOES NOT update the paypal transaction id field on the order itself. That means that if you try to use the Angelleye “Shipment Tracking for Woocommerce” plugin with this one to send tracking info to paypal…it will sometimes fail because paypal gives the payment a new transaction id (different from the original authorization id). Thus sending the tracking info to paypal will fail because it tries to use the old (authorization) id.
Drew (store manager) –
Thanks for the feedback. We could certainly look at adding functionality to auto-capture when you mark an order completed. However, that’s a little bit backwards to be honest. Typically you wouldn’t want to mark an order completed until the capture was completed successfully. Otherwise, it’s not truly completed yet. So it almost seems like we should do it the other way around, no..?? Capture the Auth and have it auto-complete..?? Now that I say that, I think that’s what we’re doing already, but I’d have to double check.
I’ll get a ticket created about the updating of transaction Ids and use with the shipment tracking. We’ll get an adjustment done there and get an update released for it. Thanks again for the feedback!

I downloaded the Plugin for PayPal Plus. But i can´t find PayPal Plus?! Is it still inside the Plugin?
Andrew Angell (store manager) –
This is our PayPal for WooCommerce plugin, which is free and used to include PayPal Plus. PayPal Plus had to be moved to its own plugin, PayPal Plus for WooCommerce, which is a paid plugin.
