Paypal
This page is about the menu  (SETTINGS)  PAYMENTS > PAYMENT GATEWAYS > PAYPAL

1 Summary

After you integrated Paypal you can

  • collect payments for direct bookings
  • send payment requests which works for all bookings including bookings made on OTAs

If you also want to auto charge guest credit cards and virtual cards from OTAs you will need to use Stripe.

2 Setup

To use this payment option you will need an account with Paypal.

2.1 In Beds24

  • Change the setting for "Enable / Priority"
  • Enter you Paypal Email account which should receive the funds. If you have multiple Emails in Paypal make sure you use the primary one.

2.2 In your Paypal Account

To fully automate the payment collection you must go to your profile in your PayPal account and enter https://beds24.com/api/paypal/paypal.php as notification URL in "Instant payment notifications" (IPN) and set IPN messages to enabled. If you do not do this we will not be notified if payments are successful. The Instant Payment Notification settings is usually in your Paypal Profile in the "Seller Preferences" menu.


If you have the Deposit Collection Non Payment Booking Status setting set to Cancel non paid bookings, New bookings will have the status cancelled until we receive IPN notification from Paypal that the payment succeeded. Notification emails confirming the booking will also only be sent once IPN notification of a successful payment is received.

Note: If the booking page is used within an Iframe or in Wordpress it cannot redirect the user to PayPal due to the security settings in browsers. To fix you can allow the the paypal page to open in a new window.

Go to (SETTINGS) BOOKING ENGINE > PROPERTY BOOKING PAGE > PAGE DESIGN -> BEHAVIOR and set Open in New Window to On secure payment
