New IdoBooking integration with PayPal

What has changed in IdoBooking's integration with PayPal?

  • We have improved the synchronization of payment statuses with Booking Billing in IdoBooking, providing automatic circulation of booking statuses after the payment is posted in PayPal.
  • We have improved the integration activation method - just select "Add a new PayPal account" and authorize the connection, by logging in to your PayPal account.

Why activate PayPal payments?

PayPal is a popular payment method around the world. More than half of the online payments made by Germans are made through PayPal. This international payment gateway is also very popular in the US, Spain, Italy, France, UK, Austria. Therefore, if you receive guests from abroad, make this form of payment available at your property.

How can your guests use PayPal payments?
