The Problem
PayPal is everywhere. It's the payment method millions of consumers trust. And PayPal.me links offer a quick way to request money: share a URL, the customer pays via PayPal.
But PayPal.me links are extremely limited. The checkout page is a PayPal page. Your brand doesn't appear. The customer must have a PayPal account or create one: there's no option to just pay by card. There's no tracking beyond "paid" or "not paid". And the experience feels personal, not professional.
For businesses that use PayPal Commerce as their payment provider, this is frustrating. PayPal has the infrastructure for card payments, alternative methods, and proper checkout flows. But their payment link product hasn't kept up.
Shuttle connects to your PayPal Commerce account and gives you professional, branded payment links that accept cards, PayPal, and other methods, with full tracking and multi-channel delivery.
How Payment Links Work with PayPal
Shuttle connects to your PayPal Commerce account via OAuth. This means your PayPal account handles processing and settlement, while Shuttle provides the branded checkout, delivery, and tracking layer.
When a customer receives your payment link, they see your brand, not PayPal's. They can pay by card even if they don't have a PayPal account. And if they want to use PayPal, that's available too.
Every transaction settles to your PayPal account. You can withdraw to your bank account on your normal schedule. Nothing changes on the PayPal side.
Connect your PayPal Commerce account via OAuth.
Create a payment link in the Shuttle Merchant Portal: set amount, currency, and reference.
Brand the checkout page with your logo, custom domain, and business details.
Send the link via SMS, email, or chat.
Customer pays by card or PayPal. Funds go to your PayPal Commerce account.
What You Get
Your brand, not PayPal's: Professional checkout pages that show your business, not PayPal's logo and layout.
Card payments without PayPal: Customers can pay by card even if they don't have a PayPal account.
Multi-channel sending: SMS, email, and chat. Send links through whatever channel works.
Link tracking: Real-time status in the Merchant Portal (active, pending, completed, or expired). Not just PayPal's binary paid/unpaid status.
Professional appearance: No more PayPal.me links that look like you're a sole trader asking for a Venmo transfer.
Multi-use links: create one reusable link that can be paid by the same or different customers more than once, or generate single-use links through the API for one-off invoices.
Dashboard management: Create, send, and track all payment links in one place.
