Based on the data on this page, PayPal is the stronger choice for most Wix App Market merchants — 5.0★ vs Square Pay Button's 1.0★ is a meaningful gap that usually reflects real product or support quality differences across the user base. Pricing entry tiers: PayPal at Free plan available, Square Pay Button at Free plan available. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to PayPal; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Square Pay Button's 1-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than PayPal's broader-but-shallower coverage. This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Wix App Market listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.

PayPal typically suits early-stage and growth-mode stores based on its review-base composition (2 reviews). Square Pay Button aligns more with early-stage and growth-mode stores (1 reviews).
