Payment Processing
PayPal
Trusted one-click donations via PayPal
Gratona's PayPal integration gives donors an additional processor-hosted payment option using the methods available to their account and region. Current checkout, recurring, currency, and fee behavior depends on PayPal configuration and eligibility.

The Problem
Requiring donors to enter credit card details on every donation creates friction that leads to abandoned gifts — especially for mobile users and international donors who prefer familiar payment methods.
The Solution
PayPal integration adds a familiar checkout option and connects supported payment results to Gratona donation and commitment records.
