PayPal Express Checkout — Shopify Payment Method

PayPal is one of Shopify’s default payment methods. When you open a Shopify store, a PayPal Express Checkout account will be given using the email used to sign up. Sellers will be required to set up their PayPal accounts before they can collect payments for orders.
