The principle aim of the Directory theme is that it helps you earn money. It has all the features that you can use to make the visitors of your site convert to your customers. When you use these features, you’ll need to provide your customers with proper payment options so that they can make secure payments.

In built payment options

For this, the Directory WordPress theme comes with two payment methods inbuilt. Directory theme works on the base of a powerful and multi-featured plugin called Tevolution. It comes with the Paypal and PreBank transfer method inbuilt.

PayPal

Paypal is a trustworthy and well-accepted online payment option. With Tevolution installed, PayPal gets installed and ready to use.

To start using PayPal for the transaction on your site, all you need to do is create a merchant account with PayPal and configure the PayPal payment option in Tevolution settings and it is ready to use.

Prebank transfer method

The prebank transfer method allows you to accept payment offline. You have to fill up the necessary details like bank name and account number to make it available to the customers.

After submitting a listing, authors will see your bank account details along with the amount required to pay. Once you verify the payment (by checking your bank account) proceed by confirming their submission. Don’t forget to add your own bank details by editing the Prebank Transfer payment method.
