What this is
PayPal payment processing runs through PAYPAL_API_BASE and the bg_paypal_* function family — the actual gateway integration underlying every payment flow on the platform, whether that's an app subscription, a hardware order, or a business tier purchase.
How it works
Every payment-touching feature across BotGentz ultimately calls into this same set of functions — there isn't a separate, parallel payment integration per feature, which means a developer working at this layer is touching the single point every purchase flow on the platform depends on.
Holding BOT for this path
Standard commerce-category BOT holding requirement applies for development access to this layer — given how central payment gateway code is to the whole platform, this is one of the more sensitive areas of developer access, likely to come with additional review beyond the base BOT-holding requirement.
