What is PayPal Braintree, and how do I get started?

PayPal Braintree streamlines online payment processing with a full-stack platform. We offer single-touch payments, mobile SDKs, and global currency acceptance for seamless transactions. Leading enterprises, including some of the largest online retailers and multi-national businesses, use PayPal Braintree’s end-to-end suite of payment technology. We have experience working with many business types and industries. However, due to legal and regulatory compliance reasons, we’re unable to work with some business types. More information is available in our Acceptable Use Policy.
