Paste the Client ID into your eStyleCentral admin panel by following these steps: Go to General Settings -> eCommerce Settings -> scroll down to the bottom and click "Click here to edit Payment/Credit Card Settings" -> scroll down to where it says "Enable Paypal"


Check "Enable Paypal" if not already checked. Enter your Paypal email address.

Then enter the Paypal Client ID from Step 4.

Step 6

Test: On your web site add a product to the cart and start checking out using Paypal. Make sure you see the Paypal popup confirming your shipping info. This is usually enough to determine that everything is working. To be 100% sure you'd need to actually place an order using a different Paypal account.
