Market context
Malaysia is a major Southeast Asian fintech hub — Malaysian SaaS founders, freelancers, and digital exporters use PayPal as their primary USD payment rail.

Why most billing platforms can't help

Malaysia isn't on PayPal's list of countries with newer inline checkout buttons that most billing platforms rely on. Malaysian sellers connect their account, see success, then watch their checkout fail at the buyer step.

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 Malaysian accounts. Funds settle in USD in your PayPal Business account; you withdraw to Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank, or any PayPal-compatible Malaysian bank.

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.
