# Migrating from PayPal Standard to PayPal Checkout

The PayPal Standard gateway is still fully supported and you do not have to migrate. However, the PayPal Checkout gateway provides a better user experience and might result in more customer conversions. It's quite easy to migrate:

- Install the Payage PayPal Checkout addon.
- Create a REST API app in your PayPal account as described above.
- Create a PayPal Checkout account in Payage and enter the Client ID and Secret Key from PayPal.
- Unpublish the old Payage PayPal Standard account and publish the new PayPal Checkout account.
