Is SSL required to accept payments via PayPal in Magento?

I'm about to activate online payment in Magento based store and i'm interested in whether it is possible to accept payments via PayPal without SSL installed?

Solution

  • You can disable SSL verification for PayPal through admin panel. system > configuration > payment method > paypal > Enable SSL verification

    You can set this to no.

    So the SSL verification is not mandatory for PayPal.
