After selecting products to purchase, your customer chooses whether they want to pay using
PayPal or pay using credit cards directly on your website.
If your customer pays using credit cards on your website, PayPal processes them in the
background.
If your customer chooses to use PayPal, your customer is transferred to PayPal to log in and
select a postal address and payment method, and is returned to your website to complete their
purchase.
Once the buyer completes their order, you receive your payment.
