WooCommerce PayPal Payouts

WooCommerce PayPal Payouts is a WooCommerce Plugin that uses the PayPal Payouts API in order to split the payments and send to multiple PayPal Accounts(max 500 receivers per API call). Payouts settings can be configured at Product Level, Category Level and Global Level. The main(Admin) PayPal Account should be a Business account to use WooCommerce PayPal Payouts.

Please note that using this plugin the Order Amount cannot be instantaneously split between the Users when a customer makes a payment. Payments split will be processed after admin receives the payment.

How it works?

WooCommerce PayPal Payouts works as follows

Step 1: A customer makes a payment with any WooCommerce Supported Payment Gateway.
