PayPal Express

PayPal Express is similar to PayPal Standard but with a different checkout flow. The checkout is completed on the Cleverbridge site, while the payment is processed on the PayPal servers using the token.

PayPal Express Checkout evades the instant payment notification (IPN) issues that are common with PayPal Standard.

The customer experience with PayPal Express on the Cleverbridge checkout is as follows:

  1. The customer selects PayPal Express as their payment method in the checkout area.

  2. The customer is redirected to the PayPal application to confirm the purchase.

  3. When the purchase is confirmed, the customer is redirected to the Cleverbridge website with a token. This token is used to finalize the payment to PayPal.

  4. The customer completes the order on the Cleverbridge website.

  5. When the order is placed, a confirmation email is sent to the customer containing the receipt and the product delivery.
