HTML Form Basics for PayPal Payments Standard
Filling Out FORMs Automatically with HTML Variables
13
Billing Information Page Filled Out Automatically with the Buyer’s Name, Address, and
Other Contact Information
The automatically filled-out form displays Change links to let buyers change billing or
contact information, if necessary.
Filling out the Billing Information page automattically with buyers’ names, billing addresses,
and contact information streamlines the checkout experience, reduces buyer friction, and helps
improve the conversion of shopping carts to completed purchases.
For information about the variables to use, see “HTML Variables for Filling Out PayPal
Checkout Pages Automatically” on page 439.
To learn how filling out addresses automatically affects the way PayPal handles billing and
shipping addresses during checkout, see Appendix B, “Address Handling (U.S. Merchants
Only).”
