SleekView Charts for PayPal Payments for WooCommerce
PayPal Payments writes order IDs, capture IDs, and funding source to order meta. SleekView Charts turns that into a dashboard splitting wallet, card, and Pay Later orders.

PayPal meta is richer than the admin shows, charts make it readable
The official PayPal Payments extension (formerly PayPal Checkout) persists each order's PayPal order ID, capture ID, transaction ID, and funding source on the WooCommerce order. Funding source is the most useful signal: it tells whether the customer paid with their PayPal wallet, a card via PayPal, Venmo, or one of PayPal's Pay Later options.
SleekView reads wc_orders_meta on HPOS and postmeta on legacy and exposes those keys as chart axes. A chart grouped by funding source shows the wallet-versus-card mix. A chart grouped by transaction state shows captured versus pending versus refunded. Combined with order status, the dashboard makes it clear which PayPal orders need finance attention and which are settled.
The plugin still talks to PayPal's REST API for captures, refunds, and webhooks. SleekView reads the meta it stores after each call and charts the funding-source mix, the refund rate, and the daily volume on a single saved dashboard.

Comparison
Default PayPal Payments reporting vs SleekView Charts
Default WooCommerce orders (PayPal Payments)
- Funding source is in order meta but never appears in the WooCommerce reports.
- Pay Later, Venmo, and wallet orders all roll up into a single PayPal bucket in Analytics.
- Refund rate per funding source requires manual exports and a spreadsheet.
- Transaction intent (capture vs authorize) is only visible on the order edit screen.
- Per-day PayPal trends need the PayPal dashboard open in another tab.
SleekView Charts
- Reads wc_orders_meta on HPOS or postmeta on legacy, the same path PayPal Payments uses.
- Pivots funding source, transaction intent, and capture ID as groupBy columns.
- Splits wallet, card, Venmo, and Pay Later orders on the same dashboard.
- Aggregations cover count, sum, average, minimum, and maximum.
- Same orders feed Table, Kanban, and Charts views in one workspace.
Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for PayPal Payments for WooCommerce
Funding-source charts

Audience
Who builds PayPal Payments charts dashboards with SleekView
Finance teams
Funding-source distribution and refund-rate charts feed monthly reconciliation against PayPal settlement reports.
Operators
A Pay Later slice that grows over time signals which BNPL angles to promote on the storefront.
Support teams
Orders stuck at AUTHORIZE show up on a chart so support catches them before customers ask why the charge has not posted.
The bigger picture
PayPal is not one funding source, it is several
PayPal Payments writes funding source (wallet, card, Venmo, Pay Later) to every order, but the WooCommerce admin rolls them all into one PayPal bucket. That hides the most actionable signal: whether the wallet share is rising, whether Pay Later actually moves volume, whether card-via-PayPal is eating into a direct card gateway. SleekView Charts reads the same wc_orders_meta the gateway writes and exposes funding source and transaction intent as chart axes.
Operators see which PayPal angle works, finance sees the per-source refund rate, support sees stuck authorizations. The gateway still owns the PayPal API, captures, and refunds; SleekView just charts what it stores.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for PayPal Payments for WooCommerce
In WooCommerce order metadata: PayPal order ID, capture ID, transaction ID, funding source, and intent. SleekView reads wc_orders_meta on HPOS or postmeta on legacy.
Yes. Funding source distinguishes wallet, card, Venmo, and Pay Later (pay_later) as different values, so a pie or bar groups them on the same dashboard.
