PayPal is the easiest way to send and receive money online from around the world. I have seen many of you using PayPal default payment page but PayPal allows its users to customize it. Using customized one can replace the email id and PayPal logo displayed on top of payment pages with your own company or website logo. In this tutorial i will teach you all how to customize PayPal payment pages.

Login to your PayPal account –> Then go to Profile option.
On right side under Selling Preferences find Custom Payment Pages and click on it.
Now you will see default style with name PayPal. In this page you can Change Style, Preview Style, Make Primary style, Remove and Add. Click on Add option to create your new PayPal payment page.
Now you will reach Edit Custom Page Style area where you can enter your own preferences like Page Style Name, Header Image URL, Header Background Colour, etc. Give a style unique name and enter your details as shown in image below and save it. For HTML color code you can visit: http://html-color-codes.info/
Now select your newly created Payment page and make it Primary. You are done.

Go to your payment page, You should be able to see the new style page for your PayPal payment. Below is the screenshot of my customized PayPal Payment Page.

I have seen a lot of people using these custom pages but didn’t realise it was so easy to create one.

This is a good thing to do if you actually sell things off your page using Paypal. I use Paypal quite often to collect money, but it’s almost always from advertisers and the generic paypal pages work fine for me.
