Layer connects to PayPal to import the sales your customers collect through it. Payments post as revenue on the customer’s books, and withdrawals to their bank account are tracked so deposits reconcile against bank activity.

​
Setup

Grant Layer access to your customers’ PayPal activity and map each Layer business to its PayPal account. Your Layer contact will help you establish the connection. Layer ingests payment and payout activity as it occurs. Payments post as sales on the customer’s books, net of refunds. When the customer’s bank data is also connected, Layer matches PayPal withdrawals against the corresponding bank deposits, so the same revenue isn’t counted twice. This integration is enabled per platform. Reach out to your Layer contact to turn it on.

To push sales activity to Layer yourself, use the Invoices, Invoice Payments, and Payouts APIs. The sales / AR data guide covers this in full.
