Connect PayPal nowWhat this integration does
Frihet's PayPal integration imports every transaction — payments received, refunds, fees, and currency conversions — directly into your accounting. Each incoming payment is matched to a customer and invoice, eliminating the need to cross-reference PayPal reports with your books manually.
Multi-currency transactions are recorded with the exact exchange rate PayPal applied. Fees are separated and logged as expenses so your profit margins reflect the true cost of each sale.
Whether you receive payments through PayPal buttons, invoices, or checkout on your website, Frihet captures them all in a unified ledger alongside your other payment sources.
