PayPal Setup

Coming soon

PayPal lesson payments are not live yet. Connect Stripe today. This page describes the setup flow that will ship with PayPal.

Connect a PayPal Business account to Voilà so students can pay you for lessons, packages, and recurring sessions.

A trial or subscription is required to connect PayPal — the same gate as Stripe.

You cannot start PayPal onboarding if Stripe is already connected. Disconnect Stripe first. Only one payment provider can be active at a time.

Connecting Your Account​

  1. Go to Settings → Payments.
  2. Read the PayPal terms and accept the Voilà Terms of Service for payment processing.
  3. Click Connect PayPal Account.
  4. You are redirected to PayPal to complete Business account setup (or sign in to an existing Business account).
  5. Once finished, you return to Voilà with your account connected.

Your PayPal status is visible in Settings → Payments. Use Open PayPal Dashboard to manage the account on PayPal.

If you leave before finishing, return to Settings and click Continue Setup.

After Connecting​

Once connected:

  • Students who view your profile or chat with you can book and pay through PayPal (wallet or card).
  • The payment mode for new student relationships defaults to PayPal.
  • You can change the payment mode per-student to External or No payment if needed.

Disconnecting PayPal​

You can disconnect from Settings → Payments. Restrictions apply:

  • You cannot disconnect while there are pending PayPal bookings. Complete or decline them first.
  • After disconnecting, students can no longer pay you through PayPal until you reconnect.

Multiple Currencies​

Your PayPal account has a default currency based on your country. Students pay in that currency. Voilà displays prices in the Tutor Directory with conversion for browsing, but the actual charge is in your PayPal currency.
