On my classis site there is a shop using PayPal. Is there anything like that coming in the foreseeable future? Perhaps by another developer? ---

you can add any cart system to most any website tool if the tool allows adding html, which Elements does, ---

What if I wanted to pay by credit card not PayPal? The reason I ask is I am integrating Cartloom in to my new shop and it accepts both methods, it so easy to copy to snippets into any site including Elements and it works! ---

You can use a cc with paypal. They were smart enough to incorporate it. ---

I found some where not covered when I set my cart up, I do have PayPal and Stripe for all cards. Have you tried making a HTML component and adding Paypal snippet button into it to see if that works? ---

I have Paysnap. You can put a picture in there, give it a price and some text and a number so you know whats been sold. And I doubt I can put that together in Elements. Its not just adding a paypal button. Plus I have very little knowledge of html. However I will try. ---

This is very trivial to do in Elements; what you are effectively doing is building a card for the product, and then the only custom piece you need is the actual button that invokes PayPal. I have three websites doing exactly this using Cartloom instead of PayPal, and they work flawlessly and were very easy to set up. In my case, I use a snippet from Cartloom that gets me the options that might be needed for the product, the price, and a quantity widget. So all I provide is an image and descriptive text. Here is what this looks like in practice. ![CleanShot 2025-08-14 at 08.41.58@2x](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/0/0/002ecb4cae7ce8350c5ed4a6e37623c1c8254a06.png) The highlighted section is all coming from the snippet. You don’t need any knowledge of HTML, the snippet provided by PayPal is all you need. You just need to create a custom HTML component, and then paste in the code, and give it a name that makes sense for the product being sold. You will not need to edit the code. ---

Okay, that looks nice. I will dive into that. Thanks!
