Overview

Wallet checkout option

PayPal appears as a parallel path to card checkout when tenant markets enable wallet acquiring.

Express buttons reduce friction for mobile guests booking curbside pickups after landing.

Authorization outcomes mirror card flow — confirmed bookings receive the same dispatch queue entries.

  • Express PayPal button
  • Buyer protection eligible
  • Mobile-first wallet UX
  • Unified booking receipts
