Open the Shopify App
Begin by launching the Shopify app on your mobile device. Once the app is open, navigate to your store.

Customer Payment Options
With PayPal now enabled, your customers can easily pay using their PayPal balance, credit card, or bank account through the PayPal Express Checkout. This not only provides a fast and secure payment option but also enhances conversion rates by offering a trusted method without requiring any additional coding or manual setup.
