You must enter your PayPal Business Account credentials in the Braintree Control Panel to enable PayPal. You can only link one PayPal account to your Braintree gateway.
- Log into the Control Panel
- Navigate to Settings > Processing > PayPal
- Click Options
- Enter your PayPal email address and password
- Enter the URLs to your website’s Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions in the fields provided
- Click Link Account
- Make sure the “Use Vault flow” box is checked

Braintree will send you an email to confirm that you have successfully logged into PayPal in your Braintree Control Panel and let you know if there are any next steps. Once you’ve been approved to process PayPal transactions, you will be notified via email. The approval process typically takes 1-2 business days.
Note:
If you do not see the option to enter in PayPal account credentials and your account was recently approved, please check back later. It can take a few business days for your account to be fully set up and for this option to become available in the Control Panel. Contact the Braintree Support team for more information.
If All the above steps is done and PayPal is linked with your Braintree then you can accept payment using Paypal from the POS app.
