Transform your checkout experience with PayPal's latest payment acceleration technology

PayPal Fastlane brings frictionless payments to your nopCommerce store. Returning PayPal members enjoy lightning-fast checkout with pre-filled payment and shipping information, while new customers benefit from a beautifully designed step-by-step checkout flow.

What is PayPal Fastlane?

PayPal Fastlane is PayPal's modern payment acceleration solution that remembers returning customers. When a customer who has previously used Fastlane enters their email at checkout, their saved card and shipping address are automatically loaded — enabling them to complete their purchase in seconds with minimal data entry.
