Honey Checkout and PayPal

Honey Checkout uses PayPal to process your transaction, so it’s easy and secure to complete your order. Just so you know, Honey Checkout is only available for certain members and stores in the US. If you’re located outside the US, be on the lookout for more availability in the future.

Do I need to have a PayPal account to use Honey Checkout?

Honey Checkout works with your PayPal account, but you can still use it if you don’t have one. Let’s break it down:

If you already have a PayPal account, you can use it to check out with Honey Checkout wherever it’s available. And your eligible purchases are covered by PayPal Purchase Protection. 

If you don’t have a PayPal account, you can use your debit or credit card to check out with Honey Checkout. In this case, your payment will be processed as a PayPal Guest Checkout transaction and will not be eligible for PayPal Purchase Protection.

How do I link an existing PayPal account to Honey Checkout?

Easy – just click the yellow Pay with PayPal button (shown below) and PayPal will take it from there. You can choose to save your PayPal login information for faster checkout next time. Don’t worry – the email address you use for your PayPal account doesn’t need to match the email you use for your Honey account. And, if you checkout using your PayPal account, your eligible purchases will be covered by PayPal Purchase Protection.

How do Honey Checkout and PayPal work together?

In case you haven’t heard, Honey is part of PayPal. For Honey members, that means we’ll use PayPal to securely handle your payment information – and you’ll get an email confirmation from PayPal anytime you check out with Honey. PayPal also helps us reach more stores so we can work harder for you in more places.
