PayPal Button Tips

This week, we've had several inquiries about PayPal buttons and we wanted to share our tips and answers with the rest of you!

Create Separate PayPal Buttons for Different Purchasing Options
You can create a separate button for every "matting", package, print size or other option.

Instead of making potential buyers contact you, offer them the option to just click the appropriate button to select their choice.

Create Separate PayPal Buttons to Pay Different Artists
We have several artist collectives, galleries, etc. using our tools and on many of these sites they sell artwork from multiple artists.

If you are managing such a site, you can create PayPal buttons that use each artist's PayPal email address so that the payments go directly to the artists.

(Please note that each artist will first have to create their own PayPal account and then let you know what email address they used for their PayPal account.)

PayPal Buttons Must Be On Their Own Line
Because of the way PayPal buttons work, they need to be on a line of their own. In other words, you can't have them at the end of a description or sentence.

They need to be on their own line to work properly.
