Connecting your PayPal account to GrowthOptix is quick, secure, and requires no technical setup.
Whether you're just getting started or connecting a new PayPal account to an existing workspace, the process only takes a few clicks.
GrowthOptix uses read-only, API-based access, which means we never store your credentials, never take actions on your behalf, and cannot access your funds or make changes to your PayPal account. We follow industry-grade security protocols to keep your data safe and encrypted at every step.
