Introducing BigCommerce Payments: Manage Payments Seamlessly

BigCommerce Payments is here: an embedded payment solution, powered by PayPal, now available directly in your BigCommerce control panel for US customers on Standard, Plus, and Pro plans. For the first time, manage payments natively in BigCommerce. Accept payments, manage payouts, track your balance, and handle bank connections with PayPal without ever leaving your store.

Payments and your store, finally in one place 

From the perspective of most customers, payments live outside your storefront. You process an order in BigCommerce, then open a separate tab to check your balance, issue a payout, or investigate a transaction. Context switching adds up quickly and can create blind spots in knowing your business. 

BigCommerce Payments is built to close that gap. Powered by PayPal, it brings payment processing directly into the BigCommerce control panel through a co-branded integration that builds on more than a decade of partnership between BigCommerce and PayPal. When you connect to BigCommerce Payments, you create a new BigCommerce Payments account. Your all-in-one Money Dashboard. PayPal powers the payment processing behind the scenes through your linked PayPal account, but all transactions made through BigCommerce Payments flow through your new BigCommerce Payments account for simplified management. The centrepiece of that experience is a new Money dashboard, which gives you real-time access to balance insights, top-ups, payouts, bank connections, and currency management.
