Sending an email to every website to use this plugin and claiming that the plugin they’re using doesn’t work, calling it ‘Legacy.’ And even worse, they say in the email that they are official from PayPal. That’s a total scam. Bro, website developers are smart, don’t try to fool them like that.

We are very happy with Checkout for PayPal. It makes creating payment buttons simple and easy to manage. Also, the display of all orders contains all the information we need.
Recently we had some trouble after an update to the plugin, but that problem got resolved immediately with help provided on the support forum.
Checkout for Paypal is a reliable product and just what we need. Highly recommended.
