If you are a French merchant, you will be prompted to fill in a SIRET. A SIRET number is a unique identification number assigned to each establishment of a company or organization. It’s a 14-digit number that helps to identify and track businesses operating in France. You can find the SIRET on the Insee website.

If a merchant/store is located in France, SIRET number is required to complete the onboarding

If you are a non-French merchant, you will be prompted to fill in a SIRET (optional).

If a merchant doesn’t have a legal entity in France, we will generate a dummy SIRET number for you. After two to five business days the payment method will automatically be activated.

  • Please note, the activation link will expire in 7 days. Ensure you complete the process within this time frame.
• Enable separate Authorisation and Capture (opt in)
  • Make sure to select the same capture flow that is configured on PayPal's side:
    • Direct Capture (SALE) is the default configuration. The payment is authorized and captured immediately – i.e. if the shopper's funds to cover the payment are retrieved during the same transaction session. This is recommended, as this flow reduces the risk of captures failing (per PayPal’s authorization and honor period).
    • Authorize & capture (AUTH), the payment is first authorized; capture can occur immediately or separately, at a later time.
• Enable PayPal recurring (opt in)
  • Please contact PayPal support prior to enabling this.
