Paypal

Turtle skin is using Paypal's basic-level PayPal Payments Standard integration. Read more...

Use Paypal shopping cart
  • Index page – the shopping cart will only work on the index page.

    Please note, when ordering in bulk, you can't add images with individual shopping options.

    When you click Buy now you will be redirected to Paypal and can pay for the items. You can't add anymore items to this cart.

  • Slide page – the cart is available only under the images. With this method you can add images on-by-one, and when you are ready to pay you can proceed to the checkout on Paypal.
  • Both – the cart is available on both places.

    Please note, you can't mix the two. The slide page shopping cart is collecting the items, the index page cart must be paid insantly.

Seller ID
This is practically the email address you used when signed up with Paypal.
Currency
The currency you want to receive the payments in. Not every currency is supported by Paypal. Check out this list.
Handling fee
The fee to be added on top of every finished cart. Useful for adding as a one off shipping fee. You can leave emtpy if you don't want to use this.
Quantity cap

If you want to limit the maximum number a user can place into the shopping cart, you can do it here.

Please note, this will not limit the total number of itmes sold. The next time the user will be allowed to add the same number of items again.

Shop options

The options your customer could choose from.

Format: Option name=#.##, e.g. Poster A1=10.0.

No currency sign is allowed here!

With shipping added: Option name=10.0+1.0 – the shipping fee added here is 1.0 per item.

Add each shopping option in a separate line!

You should add at least one shop option!

Please avoid apostrophes ' and quote marks " in the shop options!

Discount rate

The global discount rate appliend on the whole cart (minus the shipping and handling fees).

The discount rate will be displayed on a red label to call the customer's attention.

Shop coupons

You can define two types of coupons:

  • One off coupons with fixed amount, e.g. 10OFF=10.0. This gives a reduction of the given amount, provided the total amount in the cart is larger.
  • Discounts expressed in Percentage, e.g. 50PCOFF=50%. This will give a one time discount on whatever placed in the cart.

You can define expiry too in the following format: COUPONNAME=VALUE < YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. XMAS=25% < 2015-12-24.

Although these coupons are intended to be used only once – as Turtle skin does not require logging in, thus cannot follow visitors – this limitation stands only through the same browser session. Once the user changes browsers, or starts a new session, he/she will be able to redeem the same coupon again.

The coupon codes are encrypted in the page's source code.

Continue URL
Normally when you finish with the checkout at Paypal you will return to the album where you've left off. You can define a custom return page however, for example thanking the purchase. You can even use a custom page in the album for this purpose, just put the absolute URL here. Relative addresses (e.g. ../thankyou.html) will not work!
Individual shop options

You can define individual Shop options and Discount rate in Edit modeImage data panel.
