    Note: If you do not see 'PayPal' in the Payment gateways selector, check the Payment methods tab: PayPal has probably been added there previously.
  5. Click Add. The following screen appears:

    This means that PayPal has been successfully added to the list of your store's payment methods (If you scroll down the list, you will notice one or two new entries for PayPal methods).
  6. Click the Configure link opposite any PayPal entry on the Payment methods page. The following screen appears:

    This is X-Cart's PayPal configuration page.
  7. Make sure the PayPal configuration page displays solutions available for your country: select the country in which you do business from the Country selector at the top of the page and click Update.
  8. Choose the PayPal solution you require and adjust its configuration settings. See Adjusting PayPal Configuration Settings in X-Cart.
  9. Go back to the Payment methods page, locate the PayPal payment method you have configured and enable it: select the check box located to the left of the payment method name and click Apply changes.
