PayPal Page Style
You can change the overall appearance of the PayPal pages by defining a custom page style or
by customizing individual page style characteristics.
You define a custom page style in your profile and pass the resulting page style name when
you call SetExpressCheckout. Typically you customize individual page style
characteristics in your profile as well. However, you can also call SetExpressCheckout and
pass in individual page characteristics dynamically.
Custom Page Style
When your buyer logs in to PayPal to check out, you can make the PayPal pages the buyer sees
appear to have a similar look and feel to those on your website. You can customize any of
these page characteristics and save the results as a Page Style Name. You can define up to
three unique Page Style Names, in which you can specify the following characteristics:
 Header image
 Header border color
 Header background color
 Page background color
For instructions on how to customize page styles and create Page Style Names, see the
Merchant Setup and Administration Guide.
To set a custom page style in a call to SetExpressCheckout:
1. Include the optional PAGESTYLE parameter in the call to SetExpressCheckout.
2. Set PAGESTYLE to the Page Style Name you defined in your account.
