Accept PayPal through your shopping cart.

A shopping cart is an easy way to start selling online. It gives you access to all the tools you need in one place with pre-integrated payment, accounting, shipping and marketing solutions. And, in many cases, PayPal is already integrated. All you need to do is upload your inventory and you’re ready to go.
