The Gravity Forms PayPal Checkout Add-On, when connected to the PayPal Checkout, allows you to quickly and easily accept payments from 286 million PayPal customers, in over 100 currencies and across 200 markets, with advanced Fraud Protection and unprecedented control.

(This add-on was previously named PayPal Commerce Platform at version 1.0. Note that the filters do still use the _ppcp_ naming convention, and have not been changed to avoid any issues with existing hook users.)

Your PayPal account country and account type must be listed as supported for onboarding before payment in the following PayPal’s documentation page. If PayPal doesn’t support onboarding before payment for your account, you can’t use this add-on.
You will need Gravity Forms version 2.4 or greater and the Gravity Forms PayPal Checkout Add-On installed and activated.
Because of the secure nature of capturing payment information, you will be required to install an SSL certificate on your web site if you have not already done so. You will also need to configure your WordPress site to work properly with SSL.
- Contact your web host if you need assistance purchasing and configuring an SSL certificate. And configure your site WordPress Address and Site Address to use the https prefix once your certificate is ready.

Getting Started

Access your website dashboard that has your existing Gravity Forms plugin with the older PayPal payment option by logging in to your WordPress Admin Dashboard (Default is /wp-admin but yours could be different if you changed it).

On the far-left menu hover over Forms, and click on Settings.
Keep the WordPress Admin Dashboard open in the new tab side-by-side with this upgrade guide to easily follow along with each upgrade step.
