PayPal and Crate

Planned. What exists today is card payment through Stripe, and this page says which is which.

This integration is not available yet. It is on this page because it is planned and because you asked, not because it shipped. What you can use today is described below.

Does Crate support PayPal?

Not yet. PayPal is planned and is not available today, and this page says so rather than implying otherwise. The payment settings screen inside Crate shows PayPal the same way, as a card with no connect button, because a button that starts a flow which does not exist is worse than no button at all. What serves the same customer today is Stripe, which takes card payments across the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area and Canada and settles into your own account. Crate keeps one order list and one stock count whichever provider took the money. When PayPal does arrive it will mark an order paid, pack and refund the same way every other provider already does.

What it does

Each line below is either available today or labelled planned in its own words. Nothing here is aspirational without saying so.

  • Planned: PayPal balance and card through PayPal at the storefront checkout.
  • Planned: the same paid, packed and refunded order flow as every other provider.
  • Available today: card payments through your own Stripe account.
  • Available today: one order list and one stock count, whichever provider took the money.

Setting it up

Not available yet. What to do in the meantime.

  1. This integration is not available yet.
  2. Until it is, connect Stripe at Settings, then Payments, then Stripe.

Planned. Nothing on this page is available today except the Stripe alternative, which is.

Connecting this takes a few minutes once your store is open.

Connect it in the first hour.

Everything on this page is set up from the dashboard, on a phone, without a developer.
