Open Viro

    PayPal

    Connect PayPal and ask Viro about your account: the payments you received and sent, the invoices you created and whether they were paid, and any disputes customers opened. Viro only reads. It can't send money, invoice, refund, or change anything.

    What can Viro do with PayPal?

    • List the payments you received and sent in a period, with amounts, fees, and status
    • Add up what came in or went out over a week, a month, or longer
    • Show your invoices and which are unpaid, paid, or still drafts
    • Show customer disputes and where each one stands

    Viro can't:

    • Send or request money
    • Create or send an invoice
    • Issue a refund, or respond to a dispute
    • Change any setting in your PayPal account

    How do I connect PayPal?

    1. Open Customize > Connectors

      Select Customize in the sidebar, then Connectors.

    2. Open PayPal and select Connect to Viro

      Log in to PayPal and approve access.

    3. Check that it's connected

      Back in Viro, PayPal is listed under Yours.

    What can I ask?

    Once it's connected, just ask in any chat. For example:

    • "What PayPal payments did I receive this week?"
    • "How much came in on PayPal last month?"
    • "Which of my PayPal invoices are unpaid?"
    • "Do I have any open PayPal disputes?"

    How do I ask about a time period?

    Name it: "this week", "in September", or "since October 1". PayPal returns transactions for up to 31 days at a time, so for a longer period Viro looks up one month after another and adds them up. That takes a little longer.

    Why doesn't a payment from today show up?

    PayPal's transaction list can run a few hours behind your account. A payment that just arrived may not be in it yet. Ask again later, or check PayPal itself for anything from the last few hours.

    Can Viro move my money?

    No. PayPal's connection for AI apps includes creating and sending invoices. Viro doesn't use that. It only looks things up in PayPal, and it refuses anything that would create, change, or delete something there.

    How do I disconnect PayPal?

    In Customize > Connectors, open PayPal and select Disconnect. This deletes the connection Viro stored. Your past chats aren't deleted. PayPal may still list Viro AI as a connected app. If you want it gone there too, remove it in your PayPal account settings.

    Is my PayPal data private?

    Viro reads your PayPal data only to answer what you ask. It's never used to train AI models, and Viro never sells your data. That data includes the names and email addresses of the people you paid or were paid by, which PayPal returns with transactions and invoices.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can Viro send money or an invoice from PayPal?

    No. Viro only reads PayPal. It can't send or request money, create or send an invoice, refund a payment, or respond to a dispute.

    Why doesn't a recent PayPal payment show up?

    PayPal's transaction list can run a few hours behind your account, so a payment that just arrived may not be in it yet.
