Integrating with Braintree by PayPal for eCommerce
Braintree by PayPal is an online payment processing platform that allows businesses to send and receive payments over the internet. It is fully integrated into Academy of Mine's checkout process. Payments made in Academy of Mine will be passed on to Braintree for collection.
Note: Academy of Mine does not directly collect payments. In order to collect payments, you will need to sign up with a third party payment gateway, such as Braintree by PayPal, then connect it with the Academy of Mine platform using the API credentials provided by the payment gateway. Before proceeding with this guide, you must sign up for a Braintree by PayPal account.
This guide will help you complete your Braintree integration, set up testing, and ultimately go live to collect real payments.
