In this tutorial we will see how to integrate paypal payment gateway in laravel 8, payment integatetion is very useful and important features in e-commerce website. I will explain you laravel 8 paypal payment integration example. You can also use paypal payment gateway integration in larave 8, laravel 7 and laravel 6.

PayPal is an American company operating a worldwide online payments system that supports online money transfers and serves as an electronic alternative to traditional paper methods like checks and money orders.

So, let's start to implements laravel 8 paypal payment integration.

 

 

We are creating new project setup for this paypal integration example ,So create new project using below command.

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel paypal_payment_integration

 

We will setup database configuration for example database name, username, password etc.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=Your_Database_Name
DB_USERNAME=Your_Database_Username
DB_PASSWORD=Your_Database_Password

 

Run the following command in your project to get the latest version of the paypal API package using composer.

composer require paypal/rest-api-sdk-php

After installation of paypal package we required client_id and secret_key for paypal integration, so we need to login in paypal developer mode and create a new sandbox account for same. After login in paypal you need to get client_id and secret_key like below screenshot. before getting client_id and secret_key we need to create application. So, check below screenshot and create application.

After create application click on created application and get client_id and secret_key from that application.

 

 

Now, we need to configure paypal.php file So, I have manually created one file in config/paypal.php and add below code.

<?php 
return [ 
    'client_id' => 'XXXXXX',
	'secret' => 'XXXXXX',
    'settings' => array(
        'mode' => 'sandbox',
        'http.ConnectionTimeOut' => 1000,
        'log.LogEnabled' => true,
        'log.FileName' => storage_path() . '/logs/paypal.log',
        'log.LogLevel' => 'FINE'
    ),
];

 

Now, I have created route as below.

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::get('paywithpaypal', array('as' => 'paywithpaypal','uses' => 'PaypalController@payWithPaypal',));
Route::post('paypal', array('as' => 'paypal','uses' => 'PaypalController@postPaymentWithpaypal',));
Route::get('paypal', array('as' => 'status','uses' => 'PaypalController@getPaymentStatus',));

 

Created controller to manage all the PayPal related logics.So, copy below code in PaypalController.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Http\Requests;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Validator;
use URL;
use Session;
use Redirect;
use Input;
use PayPal\Rest\ApiContext;
use PayPal\Auth\OAuthTokenCredential;
use PayPal\Api\Amount;
use PayPal\Api\Details;
use PayPal\Api\Item;
use PayPal\Api\ItemList;
use PayPal\Api\Payer;
use PayPal\Api\Payment;
use PayPal\Api\RedirectUrls;
use PayPal\Api\ExecutePayment;
use PayPal\Api\PaymentExecution;
use PayPal\Api\Transaction;

class PaypalController extends Controller
{
    private $_api_context;
    
    public function __construct()
    {
            
        $paypal_configuration = \Config::get('paypal');
        $this->_api_context = new ApiContext(new OAuthTokenCredential($paypal_configuration['client_id'], $paypal_configuration['secret']));
        $this->_api_context->setConfig($paypal_configuration['settings']);
    }

    public function payWithPaypal()
    {
        return view('paywithpaypal');
    }

    public function postPaymentWithpaypal(Request $request)
    {
        $payer = new Payer();
        $payer->setPaymentMethod('paypal');

    	$item_1 = new Item();

        $item_1->setName('Product 1')
            ->setCurrency('USD')
            ->setQuantity(1)
            ->setPrice($request->get('amount'));

        $item_list = new ItemList();
        $item_list->setItems(array($item_1));

        $amount = new Amount();
        $amount->setCurrency('USD')
            ->setTotal($request->get('amount'));

        $transaction = new Transaction();
        $transaction->setAmount($amount)
            ->setItemList($item_list)
            ->setDescription('Enter Your transaction description');

        $redirect_urls = new RedirectUrls();
        $redirect_urls->setReturnUrl(URL::route('status'))
            ->setCancelUrl(URL::route('status'));

        $payment = new Payment();
        $payment->setIntent('Sale')
            ->setPayer($payer)
            ->setRedirectUrls($redirect_urls)
            ->setTransactions(array($transaction));            
        try {
            $payment->create($this->_api_context);
        } catch (\PayPal\Exception\PPConnectionException $ex) {
            if (\Config::get('app.debug')) {
                \Session::put('error','Connection timeout');
                return Redirect::route('paywithpaypal');                
            } else {
                \Session::put('error','Some error occur, sorry for inconvenient');
                return Redirect::route('paywithpaypal');                
            }
        }

        foreach($payment->getLinks() as $link) {
            if($link->getRel() == 'approval_url') {
                $redirect_url = $link->getHref();
                break;
            }
        }
        
        Session::put('paypal_payment_id', $payment->getId());

        if(isset($redirect_url)) {            
            return Redirect::away($redirect_url);
        }

        \Session::put('error','Unknown error occurred');
    	return Redirect::route('paywithpaypal');
    }

    public function getPaymentStatus(Request $request)
    {        
        $payment_id = Session::get('paypal_payment_id');

        Session::forget('paypal_payment_id');
        if (empty($request->input('PayerID')) || empty($request->input('token'))) {
            \Session::put('error','Payment failed');
            return Redirect::route('paywithpaypal');
        }
        $payment = Payment::get($payment_id, $this->_api_context);        
        $execution = new PaymentExecution();
        $execution->setPayerId($request->input('PayerID'));        
        $result = $payment->execute($execution, $this->_api_context);
        
        if ($result->getState() == 'approved') {         
            \Session::put('success','Payment success !!');
            return Redirect::route('paywithpaypal');
        }

        \Session::put('error','Payment failed !!');
		return Redirect::route('paywithpaypal');
    }
}

 

 

Now, we need to create one blade file for view so, add below code in your paywithpaypal.php file.

<html>
<head>
	<meta charset="utf-8">
	<title>How to integrate paypal payment in Laravel - Techsolutionstuff</title>
	<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
  <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.min.js"></script>
  <script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
	<div class="container">
    <div class="row">    	
        <div class="col-md-8 col-md-offset-2">        	
        	<h3 class="text-center" style="margin-top: 90px;">How to integrate paypal payment in Laravel - Techsolutionstuff</h3>
            <div class="panel panel-default" style="margin-top: 60px;">

                @if ($message = Session::get('success'))
                <div class="custom-alerts alert alert-success fade in">
                    <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-hidden="true"></button>
                    {!! $message !!}
                </div>
                <?php Session::forget('success');?>
                @endif

                @if ($message = Session::get('error'))
                <div class="custom-alerts alert alert-danger fade in">
                    <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert" aria-hidden="true"></button>
                    {!! $message !!}
                </div>
                <?php Session::forget('error');?>
                @endif
                <div class="panel-heading"><b>Paywith Paypal</b></div>
                <div class="panel-body">
                    <form class="form-horizontal" method="POST" id="payment-form" role="form" action="{!! URL::route('paypal') !!}" >
                        {{ csrf_field() }}

                        <div class="form-group{{ $errors->has('amount') ? ' has-error' : '' }}">
                            <label for="amount" class="col-md-4 control-label">Enter Amount</label>

                            <div class="col-md-6">
                                <input id="amount" type="text" class="form-control" name="amount" value="{{ old('amount') }}" autofocus>

                                @if ($errors->has('amount'))
                                    <span class="help-block">
                                        <strong>{{ $errors->first('amount') }}</strong>
                                    </span>
                                @endif
                            </div>
                        </div>
                        
                        <div class="form-group">
                            <div class="col-md-6 col-md-offset-4">
                                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">
                                    Paywith Paypal
                                </button>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                    </form>
                </div>
            </div>
