Question by Planet 316 · Nov 14, 2016 at 05:18 PM · In-Game EconomyPartner Add-ons

Paypal overlay for Unity games

Hello,

We were evaluating PayPal to use with Unity to offer the possible option of purchasing a physical object through our game. We noted that PlayFab offers PayPal in their add-on store and that seemed like a good option.

However, we were wanting to do an overlay vs taking a player out of the game to a browser if possible. The question is, does anyone currently using PayPal for Unity have an overlay solution they are using with PlayFab that works well?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

We use PayPal's Express Checkout behind the scenes, so you can read all about the options for integration here: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/express-checkout/ec_integration/. Since the player has to enter their PayPal credentials in order to make the payment, that has to be done via a PayPal interface of some kind - whether on their site, or your own website, using their "lightbox" for the user credentials.
