Description
GatewayKit lets you accept payments through Elementor Pro Forms using PayPal, with more gateways coming soon.
Build a fully customized Elementor form with your own fields and place it on any page. When a visitor submits the form, they are redirected to PayPal to complete the payment — no shopping cart or WooCommerce required.
It is designed for sites that need simple payment forms where a full e-commerce setup would be unnecessary.
For full documentation and demos, visit GatewayKit website.
Features

What is sent and when
