Ownership and trust
A connection should remain understandable and reversible
Provider integrations are most useful when your team knows which account is connected, what it enables and how to remove or replace it.
- PayPal account connection identifies the connection
- Provider fees stay with PayPal
- Enable it alongside other gateways
- Access should be limited to supported academy workflows
The AcademyLauncher standard
