Is it possible to accept credit card payments on a static site?


I use GitHub pages to host a website. I currently accept payments through paypal.me but would like to add credit card payments, and it looks like I need a server backend to use PayPal's "integration" feature. Is there any way to accept credit card payments on a static site, preferably but not necessarily through PayPal?

  • (Edited) As of Feb/March 2024, buttons/links/QRs that do *not* require a backend can potentially be generated via the several options at: https://www.paypal.com/buttons (sign in to see options specific for a particular receiving account type and country)

    Separately, a link to send money to a PayPal account can also be generated via https://paypal.me
