WooCommerce Beta Tester allows you to try out new versions of WooCommerce before they are officially released.
Use with caution, not on production sites. Beta releases may not be stable.
After activation, you’ll be able to choose an update channel:
Beta – Update to beta releases, RC, or stable, depending on what is newest. 
Release Candidate – Update to RC releases or stable, depending on what is newest. 
Stable – No beta updates. Default WordPress behavior.
These will surface pre-releases via automatic updates in WordPress. Updates will replace your installed version of WooCommerce.
Note, this will not check for updates on every admin page load unless you explicitly tell it to. You can do this by clicking the “Check Again” button from the WordPress updates screen or you can set the WC_BETA_TESTER_FORCE_UPDATE to true in your wp-config.php file.
You can get to the settings and features from your top admin bar under the name WC Beta Tester.

<h2>Accept credit cards and PayPal directly on your store</h2>
The PayPal Braintree extension lets you accept credit cards and PayPal payments on your WooCommerce store via Braintree. Customers can save their credit card details or link a PayPal account to their WooCommerce user account for fast and simple checkout.
With this gateway, you can securely sell your products online using Hosted Fields, which help you meet security requirements without sacrificing flexibility or an integrated checkout process. Hosted Fields, similar to iFrames, are hosted on PayPal’s servers but fit inside the checkout form elements on your site, providing a secure, seamless means for customers to share their payment information.
PayPal Braintree supports tokenization, letting your customers save their credit cards or connect their PayPal account for faster, easier subsequent checkouts. The gateway also supports <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-subscriptions/">WooCommerce Subscriptions</a> to let you sell products with recurring billing and <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-pre-orders/">WooCommerce Pre-Orders</a>, which supports accepting payments for upcoming products as they ship or up-front.
