  Good evening,
  To install paypall on your wordpress.com blog, please follow the steps below:

  Step 1
  You will need to log into your PayPal account and get a link code. To do that, you’ll first need to follow steps 1-9 on this page: Get PayPal Button Code. When you’ve done that, click ‘Next Step’ below.

  After you’ve gotten your link code outlined in the link above, follow the next few steps:

  Step 2 – Click here for a link that has visuals along with these steps.
  Copy the ‘Email’ link that PayPal provides to you in step 9 here. Make sure you choose the ‘Email’ tab, or the code won’t work with your WordPress.com site.

  Step 3
  Your link code goes between the quotation marks where it says ‘YOUR-LINK-HERE’ in the code provided below:

  <a href="YOUR-LINK-HERE">
  <img src="https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynow_LG.gif" alt="Buy Now Button" />
  </a>

  You’ll want to copy the code above, with your link in the ‘YOUR-LINK-HERE’ space, to be ready to paste it into a post or page in the next step.

  If you’d like to use a different button image, you can find a few image options by scrolling down to ‘Button Images’ here, or you can create and upload your own image.

  Step 4
  To place your PayPal button on a post or page, you can paste that code into the ‘HTML’ tab when creating or editing the post or page.

  Step 5 – If you want to display this button on your sidebar or another widget area…
  To display your PayPal button in a sidebar or other widget area, add a Text Widget in your Customizer, and paste your button code into it.

  Step 6
  Save your changes and check your site, making sure to click the button to test whether the PayPal link leads to the right place.

  I hope that helps! Have a wonderful evening.
