Client-side Implementation

Before you can add PayPal Order, you will need to:
  1. Create, verify, and link your PayPal account in the Braintree Control Panel
  2. Integrate the Braintree iOS SDK and obtain your client token

Invoke PayPal Order flowAnchorIcon

You can provide your own button that starts the PayPal Order flow.
  1. Swift
var braintreeClient: BTAPIClient!

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad();
    self.braintreeClient = BTAPIClient(authorization: "<#CLIENT_AUTHORIZATION#>");
    let customPayPalButton = UIButton(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 60, height: 120));
    customPayPalButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(customPayPalButtonTapped(button:)), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside);
    self.view.addSubview(customPayPalButton);
}

func customPayPalButtonTapped(button: UIButton) {
    let payPalDriver = BTPayPalDriver(apiClient: self.braintreeClient);
    // Start the Checkout flow
    let payPalRequest = BTPayPalCheckoutRequest(amount: "1.00");
    payPalRequest.currencyCode = "USD"; // Optional; see BTPayPalCheckoutRequest.h for more options
    // Specify the intent on the request object
    payPalRequest.intent = .order;
    payPalDriver.tokenizePayPalAccount(with: payPalRequest) { (tokenizedPayPalAccount, error) -> Void in
        // ...
    };
}
After the customer completes the consent flow and the PayPal pop-up closes, successful tokenization will return a nonce. Send the nonce to your server and use a Braintree server SDK call to associate it to a customer's payment method. See the server-side section for various options for doing so.
