Taking Venmo or PayPal as well
Once Payments is on, you can also show Venmo and PayPal on your checkout page under Other payment options. These are external — the buyer pays you directly, we don’t process or track the money, and the order isn’t marked paid until you confirm you’ve seen it.
Because we’re not processing them, there’s no 2% platform fee on these orders and they don’t count toward your payment volume.
