Integrate Cal ID with Paypal

Cal ID integration with Paypal allows you to accept payments while users book your events. When someone selects your event, they must pay the amount to confirm the booking. Once the payment is successful, the meeting is automatically scheduled.

Cal ID uses Paypal to allow you to receive payments when someone books your paid event type.

To start taking payments, please follow these steps:

Go to the Cal ID App store
Search for Paypal.

Click Install.
A page will appear where you have to enter Client ID and Secret Key of your Paypal account.

To achieve the Secret Key and Client ID:

Log into your Paypal Developer account and create a new app here.
Choose a name for your application.
Click on the Create App button.
Go back to dashboard, click on new app created.
Copy the Client ID and Secret Key using copy buttons one by one.
Paste them on the required field and save them.
You should be all setup after this.

On Save, you will be redirected to the Cal ID page, where you can see that the Paypal app has been installed.

Now you can add the Paypal app as a payment method to any of your event types, whether it is a new or an existing one.

How to Add Paypal to an Event Type?

Go to Event Types.
Select the event type you want to add Paypal to, and click Edit.
Go to the Apps section.
Turn ON the Paypal app toggle.
Enter the amount you want to collect for this event type.
Save it.

Now your booking page is looking like:

Once the user fills in the required questions, they need to click the Pay to Book button and complete the payment. After the payment is successful, the meeting will be scheduled.

That's it. You will receive payments as soon as someone books you using this event type.
