Working

The working of this addon is very simple.

Let us check out how the customer will make the payment on the front end first then we will see how things are going on the back end.

Front End Flow

Once the module is successfully configured the guest will see the option to pay via PayPal on the checkout page.

Now the customer has two options, pay via PayPal account or via Card.

Pay Via PayPal Account

Here the customer will have to login into his account using his credentials.

Once login the customer can use his balance to pay or use PayPal credits.

Pay Via Card

If the customer chooses to pay for his booking using his credit or debit card then he can do that too.

As he selects Pay Via Card he will have the fields to enter the details and complete the payment.

After this payment will be done and the booking will be completed.

Back End Flow

After the customer makes the payment on the front, the transaction is recorded on the backend using the PayPal Transaction Tab.

Now the admin can click on the View button to see the details of a particular transaction.

Refund Management

Here he will also have the option to make a refund.

The admin can either make a full refund or he can make a partial refund. In case of a partial refund, he will have to enter the amount he wants to refund.

So this is how you can manage your payments through the QloApps PayPal Checkout payment gateway.
