Shopping cart for PayPal only

I'm selling consulting packages, and only want to use paypal, but I need to capture contact info (Name, address, phone, some custom fields) BEFORE sending them to Paypal for the payment.

I don't need a store.

Buy link ==> Checkout page to capture info ==> Paypal for transaction.

It is surprisingly difficult to find a solution that will help here.

Any recommendations?

  • Even though you do not need a store I would recommend that you use WordPress and woo commerce, link to your product page only, use PayPal plug in and customize checkout fields plugin. Simple. Good Luck.

    Why you don't want a store when they were built specifically for this purpose?

    You need a developer to help you with that, and that's more expensive than using a store CMS.

    A bar of iron cost $5. Made into horseshoes, it's worth $12. Made into needles, it's worth $3500. Made into balance springs for watches, it's worth $300,000. Your value is determined by what you are able to make of yourself

    You can capture custom fields on a PayPal Buy Now button in addition to the name, address, email by using the PayPal Buy Now button builder.

    If you need assitance, I would try talking with PayPal. If you need additional help, you can hire me as a consultant, however you should be able to do it without someone else.
