Market context
Sri Lanka's growing remote-work and BPO sector makes PayPal a preferred cross-border payment method for freelancers and digital exporters.

Why most billing platforms can't help

Sri Lanka isn't included in PayPal's newer inline checkout buttons. Sri Lankan sellers see broken checkouts on most billing tools even though their PayPal Business account is perfectly functional.

How PayRequest accepts PayPal where others won't

Works with any PayPal Business account

Connect your existing PayPal account in two clicks. PayRequest detects your country automatically and uses the right PayPal checkout flow for your region — no manual setup, no integration code.

Standard PayPal checkout your customers already trust

When buyers click 'Pay with PayPal' on your invoice or payment link, they're taken to PayPal's official checkout page. Full PayPal branding, login flow, and saved payment methods — exactly what buyers expect.

Same PayPal fees, same payouts, same dashboard

Funds land in your PayPal Business account exactly as they would on paypal.com. Refunds, disputes, and reporting all live in your familiar PayPal dashboard — nothing changes about how you run your finances.

What this means for your PayPal account

PayRequest uses PayPal's standard checkout flow for Sri Lankan accounts. Funds settle in USD in your PayPal Business account; you withdraw to a USD-capable Sri Lankan bank account on your normal schedule.

Local payment methods to pair with PayPal

PayPal alone rarely covers a whole market. PayRequest lets you offer local payment options alongside PayPal — buyers pick whichever suits them best.

All of these are available through PayRequest's payment pages. Connect any combination on a single plan — no extra integration work.

Frequently asked questions

Will my buyers see PayPal's branding at checkout?

Yes. Buyers complete payment on PayPal's official checkout page — full PayPal branding, login, and trust badges. After approval they return to your invoice or payment confirmation.

Do I need a different PayPal account?

No. Your existing PayPal Business account works as-is. PayRequest connects through PayPal's official partner connection — the same way any approved billing tool connects.

What does it cost?

PayRequest is €20/month for unlimited invoicing, payment links, and PayPal connections. PayPal's own transaction fees still apply on each payment, exactly as they would on paypal.com.

What about refunds and disputes?

Refunds work from your PayRequest dashboard or your PayPal account — both push the refund through PayPal's standard system. Disputes appear in your PayPal Resolution Center as usual, with no extra steps.

Will conversion rates be lower than inline PayPal buttons?

In our experience, no. Buyers leave your invoice page briefly to approve on PayPal, then return. Most PayPal users prefer the full-page checkout because it shows their wallet balance and saved payment methods.
