How to Pay with Third-Party Payment Providers
You can pay for most items on Staples.com using third-party payment providers PayPal, Apple Pay and Klarna.
To pay for a qualifying order using your third-party payment account, simply select the button for the method you’d like use on the Cart page or at Checkout. You will be redirected to the third-party payment site. Once your address and payment method are confirmed, you’ll be directed back to our Staples Checkout page to finish placing your order.
