Use the official one: “WooCommerce PayPal Payments,” built and maintained by PayPal.

It’s the current, supported PayPal integration for WooCommerce – it handles standard PayPal, Pay Later, and card payments processed through PayPal, and PayPal keeps it up to date with their own security and API requirements. It’s free.

Steer clear of older PayPal plugins (like the long-deprecated “PayPal Standard”) and unofficial third-party alternatives. Payment is the one area of your store where “official and actively maintained” beats “feature-rich but unofficial” every time – a gateway that falls out of compliance or breaks silently costs you real sales.

Install it, connect your PayPal Business account, and PayPal appears at checkout. More: full gateway guide
