When you create the account in the plugin’s settings you’ll be asked for the e-mail which identifies your account on the PayPal system.
You can mark the “Test Mode” checkbox to use the PayPal’s sandbox environment and be able to test the payments before you launch the website.

The PayPal tab of the settings allows you to setup PayPal Payout. This functionality lets admins and users to "sell" points for real money.
To make this work you have to:
- enable the first checkbox,
- choose the point to currency ratio e.g 10 means that each 10 points are worth 1 currency unit so 50 points = $5,
- create the Application in PayPal (or use the already created one) from PayPal's Developer Portal,
