Adding your Custom Header or Logo to PayPal Checkout Print

  • 26

The following article describes how to add your own store logo to your PayPal Payment pages:

  1. Within Photoshop or your preferred image editor application:
    a) If you wish to use a custom header image
    - create a new image with a width of 750 pixels and height not more than 90 pixels. A common practice is to place your store logo aligned to the left corner and business information aligned to the right corner. Save your new PayPal banner as a GIF or JPG with a filesize less than 50KB
    b) If you wish to use just a custom logo image
    - create a new image with a width of 190 pixels and height not more than 60 pixels. Save your new PayPal banner as a GIF or JPG with a filesize less than 50KB
  2. Upgrade your PayPal account type to Premier or Business
  3. From the My Account page click on Profile
  4. Open Custom Payment Pages from the Selling Preferences section
  5. From the bottom buttons click Add to create a new Payment Page template/style
  6. Provide a name of your new template; ensure to only use letters and number, no spaces
  7. Upload your header or logo image to your site to the images folder.
  8. Next, add the image settings within Paypal:
    a) If you are using a header image, enter the secure URL for that image (https:// ...) in the "Header Image URL" textbox. If your PayPal banner has a white (#FFF) background leave the Header Background Image, Header Border Colour and Background Colour fields empty. Then click Save.
    b) If you are using a logo image only, enter the secure URL for that image (https:// ...) in the "Logo Image URL" textbox. Also enter the desired color settings in the other fields and then click Save.
  9. Lastly, after clicking "Save" on the Page Styles screen, select your new style and click "Make Primary".
  10. That's it! Sign out of your PayPal account and run a test transaction within your store, if you followed the above instructions correctly you should now be seeing your custom PayPal logo or banner on your PayPal Payment pages.
