You can integrate with Accept Payments with PayPal on the Apps menu, Steve. I can show you how while sharing some information regarding the 2FA code.

 

You'll need an Australian PayPal business account to use this app. This allows you to pay invoices by credit/debit card powered by PayPal payments while accounting is in QuickBooks Online. Take note that merchant transaction fees apply for receiving online payments.

 

Here's how to do that:

 

  1. Go to the Apps menu on the left panel.
  2. Select the Find apps tab, then search for the Accept Card Payments with PayPal app.
  3. Follow the on-screen process to grant permission for PayPal to connect to QuickBooks, then return to QBO.
  4. Confirm the Chart of Account name you would like payments to be collected, then hit Next.
  5. Choose the Chart of Account name for the PayPal fees category, then tap Done.

After that, proceed to Part 2 of this article to enable PayPal to sync your transactions into the program: Set up the Accept Card Payments with PayPal app in QuickBooks Online.

 

It's also worth noting that there's no workaround for the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) code process to comply with modern security standards and provide extra protection against password theft. If you'd like to disable this feature, follow the steps in the Turn off two-step verification section of this guide: Secure your Intuit Account and prevent lockout with extra verification methods.
