Accepted Payment Type

[Allan]

I was looking and I see that paypal is not listed as accepted payment type, how can I add it to the list?

Only clients can pay with non-merchant payment gateways. Login as the client, or checkout as a client.

Hi Allan,

In Blesta, top right click Settings -> Payment Gateways, from the left hand side select Available under payment gateways.

To add to WNZ, if you mean for manual transactions you can go to Settings > System > General > Payment types.

Thank you both very much I was asking in the section that is labeled Accepted Payment Type which has a drop in for clients to choose when paying in the client portal, I have PayPal standard already setup but it only shows Credit Card or Automatic Clearing House.

Do you have teamviewer mate, I think it's due to the order form.

Ok so check the following:

1. Check that the PayPal gateway has been installed and set-up correctly.

2. Check the currencies accepted by PayPal.

3. Check the order form ensure "PayPal" is checked and that the currencies are selected.
 

Then try again, also try "Making a payment" manually by clicking the button on the client area. It should show up on the right hand side.

I have gone over everything as stated and when I go to make a payment  I only have the two options.

OK so as an admin I won't even see this option?

No. PayPal requires the customer to login to their PayPal account to process payment, so it would be useless to an admin.

understandable, I was just thinking that I have clients that just pay in paypal and not through the invoice so I have to manually make the payment under their account. Even though that has nothing to do with this topic lol

You can use the record payment mate, and if you set up a debit Accepted payment type you can say PayPal (Manual) and use that.
