Show funding source

Your Checkout experience might have a confirmation page or a notification to the user that they're paying with PayPal. Ensure the funding source the user chose, such as Venmo, shows as expected or it might lead to confusion and reduced Checkout conversion.

Use an onClick handler to get the funding source and display it on a confirmation page.

    1let fundingSource;
    2
    3paypal.Buttons({
    4 onClick: (data) => {
    5 // fundingSource = "venmo"
    6 fundingSource = data.fundingSource;
    7
    8 // Use this value to determine the funding source used to pay
    9 // Update your confirmation pages and notifications from "PayPal" to "Venmo"
    10 }
    11})
