Hi Jenni, Sorry that you are having an issue when creating a PayPal button. Unless you are working in a custom code email, you would need a url (not code )to link to. On the PayPal site you can get the url by following the email instructions. "To email the button to someone, click the Email tab and copy and paste the given link. You can then email the link and the recipient can click on it to make a payment." In Constant Contact, you will use this url to link to the image of the PayPal button you created. Best,
