AffiliateWP - PayPal Payouts
AffiliateWP PayPal Payouts is a paid add-on for AffiliateWP that sends affiliate commissions through PayPal. It adds a PayPal payout method, bulk payouts from the payouts screen, a pay-now action on referrals and a sandbox test mode. It suits stores that already run AffiliateWP and pay affiliates through PayPal. It needs the AffiliateWP core plugin and a licence to receive updates, and it sends payment requests to the live PayPal API unless test mode is on.
Pros
