Get PayPal shipping cost and merchant fee into woocommerce

Hello @joshlovesit ,

I want to get the PayPal transaction details to automatically show up in WooCommerce order pages. Specifically the “shipping amount” and “PayPal fee”. Is there a method to achieve this?

I understand your request. The information you want to show is actually dependent on the Payment gateway you are using.

But today I did finally see a closed post on here about the PayPal fee showing up via the “WooCommerce PayPal Checkout Payment Gateway” plugin. I’m not sure how that works, or how that plugin is different from the native PayPal option within WooCommerce.

That’s a good question!

The basic difference is that with the Paypal standard the customer has to be redirected to Paypal’s website to complete the payment. On the other hand, the Paypal Checkout plugin can complete the payment keeping your customer on your site. Along with this, the plugin adds some other benefits.

One of which is the Paypal transaction fee information on the order details page.

Especially if I could use get the PayPal details to be exported via the “Export Orders” plugin (to export into an Excel file).

This can not be confirmed here as WooCommerce by default does not provide an order export feature. You need to contact the respective plugin developer to get confirmed information. If you want to ask about the WooCommerce Customer / Order / Coupon Export plugin then feel free to create a ticket on https://woocommerce.com/.

I hope the above information helps.

Thank you ??
