Braintree Powered By Paypal is one of the quickest Payment Gateways to install on your EKM online shop and offers your customers the ability to pay for their transactions via a standard credit/debit card or their own Paypal account if they wish.
You do need to have a Paypal account of your own to link to this Payment Gateway, but if you do not have one already, you can open one by following this guide.
[tips] Before you begin this guide, contact your bank and obtain the IBAN Code for the bank account linked to your Paypal account, and the BIC/Swift Code. The IBAN Code is unique to your bank account and allows you to receive money internationally, whilst the BIC Code (sometimes called a Swift Code) corresponds to the physical bank branch where your account is located.
20. Ticking the box for Paypal Checkout adds a Paypal button to the Shopping Cart page of your EKM online shop. This will allow the customer to bypass parts of your own Checkout Flow, but this may make the payment process quicker for your customers. If you wish to run on this functionality, tick the box.
The 3D Secure checkbox ensures that during the transaction process, a window provided by the customer's bank will display and urge the customer to add their passcode/password as set by their bank. This extra step reduces fraudulent payments.
In the 3D Minimum Amount field, you can set a minimum amount for the window mentioned above to trigger, but we'd recommend leaving this set as zero, so every transaction requires this security step.
This will remove the Braintree Payment Gateway completely from your EKM online shop. You will need to contact Braintree on 0800 368 7297 on weekdays between 9am-5.30pm to close down your account with them.
[remember] Braintree is a third party Payment Gateway, which means you are using a company external to EKM in order to process payments on your EKM online shop. With this in mind, EKM cannot control how the third party processes payments or influence their policies and procedures.
