PayPal Card Payments functions as a secondary option for the [[PayPal Payments]] module.

[[File:client-area-checkout-paypal-payments.png|600px]]

When you enable this module, it adds a separate option for credit and debit cards that displays without the PayPal Smart Button branding. However, PayPal requires that you display PayPal Smart Buttons (using the '''PayPal Payments''' module) alongside this unbranded option.

== Adding the PayPal Card Payments Payment Gateway ==

To set up the PayPal Card Payments payment gateway in WHMCS:

# Activate and configure the '''[[PayPal Payments]]''' module. <div class="docs-alert-info">This module uses the PayPal account settings that you configure for '''PayPal Payments'''. You '''cannot''' configure this module without first activating '''PayPal Payments'''.</div>
# Go to '''Configuration (<i class="fa fa-wrench" aria-hidden="true"></i>) > System Settings > [[Payment Gateways]]'''.
# Find the '''PayPal Card Payments''' module in the list of active gateways. By default, this module uses <tt>Pay with Cards</tt> as the display name here and in the Client Area.
# Check '''Show on Order Form''' to display this payment method in the Client Area during checkout.<div class="docs-alert-info">You cannot enable '''Show on Order Form''' for this module without first enabling '''Show on Order Form''' for the '''PayPal Payments''' module.</div>
# Click '''Save Changes'''.

== Using PayPal Card Payments ==

The '''PayPal Card Payments''' module functions as a secondary module for the '''[[PayPal Payments]]''' module. For more information on module functionality, see [[PayPal Payments]].
