Setup

How we connect it

  1. 1

    Connect your account

    You log in with your own Paypal account. We never see your password, and you can revoke access from Paypal at any time.

  2. 2

    Set the guardrails

    Read-only by default. You choose which write actions the agent may take, and anything outside that policy gets confirmed with you first.

  3. 3

    We keep it running

    Health checks on every connection, updates handled for you, and we watch the first week of activity to make sure the work lands.

FAQ

Paypal questions, answered.

You sign in with your own Paypal account. Permissions are scoped to the minimum the agent needs, the connection is health-checked, and you can revoke access from Paypal at any time.
The actions Paypal's API allows, the same things a person clicking around the app could do. Connections start read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against the policy you set before the agent takes them.
Connections are priced per tool on top of the base plan. Some are included, some are premium. See pricing for how connection charges work.
Standard tools are ready inside 7 business days of the setup call. We test the connection end to end, walk you through how the agent uses it, and watch the first week of activity.
