WordPress Easy Paypal Payment or Donation Accept Plugin
"WordPress Easy Paypal Payment or Donation Accept Plugin’ is an easy to use WordPress plugin to Accept Paypal payment for a service or a product or Donation in one click. Can be used in the sidebar, posts and pages.
After receiving numerous requests, I have added multiple currency support and a donate button option to this WordPress plugin. See the change log section below. Now WordPress admins can configure this plugin with a ‘Donate’ button to receive donations through PayPal. If you want to accept payment for products and want shopping cart functionality then check the WordPress Simple Paypal Shopping Cart plugin. If you are just after a simple donation only plugin then check out the WordPress Simple Donation Plugin Page.
A while back I was looking for a WordPress plugin to use on one of my sites to accept payment for a simple service without the Customers having to log in to my site or become a member and stuff. I couldn’t find a simple enough WordPress plugin that does the job so I wrote one myself. One of my friends used it and suggested that I should make this plugin available for others to use. So I tidied up some code and decided to release it.

Additional Documentation
How to collect the Shipping Address from the customer
You don’t really need to collect shipping address from the customers manually as they can specify a shipping address when paying on PayPal. So this is how it works:
- A customer clicks on the Pay Now/Buy Now button and goes to paypal to pay for the product or service.
- The customer fills in the credit card details or logs into his/her paypal account and reviews the order
- Now before hitting the “Pay Now” button the customer can specify a shipping address by clicking on “Change Shipping” that is shown below the default shipping address.
- After payment, PayPal will send you a payment confirmation email which will have this postal address so you can ship the item.
If you need help wth this plugin (such as additional currency support etc) or if you find an issue with the plugin then leave a comment and I will try to address it as soon as I can and don’t forget to check out the WordPress Simple Paypal Shopping Cart plugin WordPress Donation Plugin which also allows you to sell proucts and services sitewide and has shopping cart functionality or the which allows you to receive donation.
