Using Multiple PayPal Accounts

You can use a separate PayPal account for each website you operate. If you use NetSuite OneWorld, you can use a separate PayPal account for each of your subsidiaries.

To set up multiple PayPal accounts:

1. If you do not already have a PayPal merchant account, go to PayPal to set one up.

2. Create PayPal account records in NetSuite that correspond with each PayPal account. Go to Setup > Accounting > PayPal Accounts > New.

3. Enter the following information in the Account Basics area:

   • Account Name - Enter a name for the PayPal payment method.

   • Primary PayPal Email Address - Enter the email address you use to log in to your PayPal merchant account.

     Important:

     To receive customer payments, this email address must match the email address you use for your PayPal merchant account. This field is case sensitive. To confirm your primary email address, log in to your PayPal account and go to your profile.

   • Check Test Mode if you are using the PayPal sandbox environment for testing the workflow.

   • Check Inactive if you do not want this PayPal account to be available for use on your website.

   • Check Use Express Checkout to use PayPal Express Checkout. Follow the instructions in Setting Up PayPal Express Checkout if you want to use PayPal Express Checkout.

   • Check Use Express Checkout With Bill Me Later to offer customers the option to use their PayPal Credit accounts when making a purchase. Follow the instructions in Setting Up PayPal Express Checkout if you want to use PayPal Express Checkout.

4. In the Payment Method area, complete the following steps to select an account for PayPal transactions:

   • Select your subsidiary from the Subsidiary list.

     Note:

     The subsidiary must be the same as the one you select in Step 11.

   • Check Deposit To.

   • Select PayPal from the Account list.

5. Click Submit

   Note:

   Integration with PayPal is validated after you click Save on the PayPal Accounts page.

6. Repeat Steps 2 through 5 for each of your PayPal accounts.

7. Go to Commerce > Websites > Website List to associate your PayPal accounts with multiple websites, or multiple subsidiaries in a OneWorld account. Follow the steps below:

   • For multiple websites – Go to the Setup tab and select the appropriate PayPal account in the Preferences section.

     

   • For OneWorld – Go to the Setup tab and associate a PayPal account record with each of your subsidiaries.
