PayPal is an online payment service that allows you to pay for products using a secure internet account. You can integrate a PayPal account with your Fit Funnels account using three methods. A PayPal payment gateway button is the easiest one as you only need to paste your API Keys. You can also embed a PayPal button or integrate your form with PayPal.
