This article will focus on how to set up a payment gateway in phpFox.

If you are planning on accepting money for subscriptions, ads, or any other part of your site that you can monetize, you will need to set up a payment gateway.

To get started, select Settings > Payment Gateways

phpFox has two payment gateways loaded by default, PayPal and 2Checkout.  You have the option for both to activate them and/or put them in test mode.  If you have a payment gateway set to active, you will receive money through that gateway.  If you have a payment gateway set to test mode, then you will not receive money through that gateway.  By default, both 2Checkout and PayPal are set to inactive.
