Integrating Express Checkout from the Payment Methodss page
Note that if your checkout flow omits the Merchant Review page and proceeds directly to your

Now. For details on how to change the text on the PayPal Review page from ‘Continue’ to
‘Pay Now’ see “User Confirms Order on PayPal” on page 67.

You add Express Checkout to your existing flow by placing the Check out with PayPal

methods page. The following diagram shows the complete flow:
