How to get your PayPal Client ID and Secret

What to open

Each button opens the right page on the other company's site in a new tab, so you can keep these steps open beside it.

Steps

These are the same steps you see beside the settings in your shop's back office.

1. Press Open PayPal: live apps and sign in with your PayPal business account. For testing, use Sandbox apps instead.
2. Press Create App. Name it Tillzy, type Merchant, then Create App.
3. Copy the Client ID into Client ID below.
4. Under Secret key 1, press the eye or Show, copy it and paste it into Secret.
5. Set Account type to match (Live or Sandbox), tick Let customers pay with PayPal and press Save.

Where it goes in Tillzy

In your shop's back office the same steps sit beside the boxes you fill in. This is a made-up demo shop.
