PayPal is a secure, widely used online payment platform allowing users to send money, make purchases, and receive payments globally without sharing financial details. It acts as a digital wallet, linking bank accounts or cards to pay online, in-store, or via app. It is free to sign up and is available in over 200 markets.

Important note: please see our pricing and plans page to confirm if this feature is available within your subscription. Should you wish to upgrade, you can do so via this link. Otherwise, please contact one of our friendly Support team for further information.

This needs to be setup correctly so any time a client uses PayPal to pay you for products or services, their payment will show in Timely. This makes sure your records stay up-to-date. To do this:

1 To start, click your profile icon in the top right hand corner, and select account settings. If you can't find the Account Settings, you might be using your PayPal Personal account. You'll need to change to a PayPal Business account.

2 Use the search field on the left-hand side to find instant payment notifications.

3 Click on update in the instant payment notifications section.

4 Under notification URL the address needs to be the following:
https://webhooks.gettimely.com/webhooks/paypal/
Click edit settings to change it if you need to.

5 Make sure that message delivery is set to enabled.
