How does PayPal work on Etsy?
• After the buyer clicks on the “buy” button, the buyer selects PayPal as the payment method. As soon this happens, Etsy will email both seller and buyer a notification of the Etsy sale. • The buyer is then redirected to PayPal to start the checkout process. The buyer can either sign in to their PayPal account, or they can use a credit card without having to register for an account. • At the end of the checkout process, the buyer is redirected back to a confirmation page on Etsy. At the same time, PayPal will send buyer and seller email receipt for payment submitted or received. • The seller will see money deposited into PayPal account. The payment may need to be “confirmed” on the seller’s end.
