Anyone have a plugin to allow paypal payment for a product sold on a product marketing app?

Anyone have a plugin to allow paypal payment for a product sold on a product marketing app? I did not see any plugin available for this under the plugins section of the site...seems like that would be an important plugin...Thank you.

Apple tend not to like Paypal. You can 'hide' a Paypal screen then add it back in after approval but do so at your own risk. They like you to go through their in app purchase so they get a cut, understandable.

A trick you could use is to create a html form for the product using jotform or similar and set it up as a straightforward email order and simply attach a custom url screen to the hosted form. Then once approved simply add paypal option to your form to collect payments. All the best

Not for selling the app...but for selling a non-software product within the app....basically the app is for providing information about and selling a non-software product. I apparently can just add the e-commerce functionality in the form of a custom html plugin that has paypal button(s) or dropdown menu... Thanks for responses...

What I heard, you cannot use PayPal in AppStore or Google Play - the reason is simple. They would loose their 30%. I might be wrong, I just reproduce word of mouth from an insider. Regards, Frogman
