Frequently Asked Questions

What PayPal API features are implemented?

PayPal boilerplates implement the provider's complete API suite including checkout sessions, subscription lifecycle management, customer portal, webhook event handling, and invoice generation. They use PayPal's latest API version with proper error handling, idempotency keys, and retry logic. The integration includes PayPal-specific features like payment intents, setup intents, subscription schedules, and tax calculation APIs.

How are PayPal webhooks handled securely?

PayPal webhooks are verified using the provider's signature validation to prevent spoofing attacks. The boilerplate includes webhook endpoints with proper PayPal signature verification, event type filtering, and idempotent event processing to handle duplicate deliveries. Events are processed asynchronously with retry logic, and the implementation handles PayPal's specific webhook events like subscription updates, payment failures, and customer changes.

What PayPal subscription logic is pre-built?

PayPal boilerplates include complete subscription lifecycle management using the provider's API: plan creation, subscription initiation, proration handling for upgrades/downgrades, trial period management, and cancellation flows. The implementation handles PayPal's specific billing cycles, metered billing (if applicable), and subscription schedules. Database models sync subscription status, billing periods, and feature entitlements in real-time through webhooks.

How does PayPal handle failed payments and dunning?

PayPal boilerplates implement the provider's smart retry logic and dunning management. They handle PayPal's specific failure scenarios including insufficient funds, expired cards, and authentication failures. The system sends automated email notifications through PayPal's webhook events, implements grace periods before downgrading service, and provides customers with update payment method flows using PayPal's hosted UI or API.

What PayPal compliance and tax features are included?

PayPal boilerplates leverage the provider's tax calculation APIs (Stripe Tax, Paddle's automatic tax handling, etc.) for automatic sales tax, VAT, and GST calculations based on customer location. They implement PayPal's compliance features including SCA (Strong Customer Authentication) for European payments, PCI DSS compliance through hosted payment pages, and proper invoice generation with tax line items. All card data is handled by PayPal, never touching your servers.
