How it connects
PayPal has an official connector in Claude's directory. A Claude admin switches it on and each person signs in with their own PayPal login, so Claude only sees what they're allowed to see. Helm handles the setup, checks the permissions and trains your team on what to ask.
Looking after your PayPal data
PayPal holds customer payment details and the ability to send invoices and refunds, so Helm makes sure a person approves anything that sends money or messages to customers.
- Only the access you approve.
- Everything stays in your own accounts.
- On Claude's business plans, your data isn't used to train AI models.
