PayPal Shopping Cart
PayPal is the world's most popular online payment system and we have a direct integration with their shopping cart. Using PayPal with your site is as simple as adding some elements and setting your prices.
Start by dragging a Product element to a page.

The system will prompt you to select either the Google Checkout or PayPal option. Select PayPal and enter your PayPal account email address. If you don't have an account already, use the provided sign-up link and come back to Weebly to start this process afterwards.
If you are not prompted to make a selection (which can occasionally happen) then you can go to Settings > Ecommerce later and select to use PayPal from there.
Once you've accepted this, you can start adding products to your site via the Product element. Though there is only one element, there are four different display styles that alter the way it looks. You can access these Display styles by clicking on the element.
The first display style is called Block. This is a small, square product element. This is suitable for creating a grid of products in conjunction with our Columns Element.
The other three styles are called Small, Regular and Large. As you might guess, these styles are much the same except the Title, Pricing and Add to Cart buttons are a different size for each. You can see the slight differences between them in the image below.
To edit a product element, just click the Title area to enter the name, the description area to enter a description, the price area to enter the price and the sample image to upload an image. This all works exactly like our other text and image elements.
When you Publish your changes, the Add to Cart button should start working immediately.
What if you need to change your account email address or change the currency used on your site? Go to the Settings tab and select the Ecommerce option. Here you can switch between PayPal and Google Checkout, change your e-commerce account email address (if you need to switch to a different PayPal or Google account) and switch your Currency to something else using the provided drop-down.
