Go back to Chargebee account settings page and scrpl down to find “Chargebee Integration Configuration” section and click on “Connect” button next to “WooCommerce Integration” title. Now you should see a screen similar to the one shown below:

You can also set up a test transaction if you want to check how everything works before charging real money for your products or services. Just go to Settings > Transactions > Test Transaction and then click on “Test Order” button next to the order number you want to test. When you are done with testing, just go back to this page and click on “Cancel Test Transaction” button next to the order number you want to cancel.

Now when someone creates an order in WooCommerce, it will automatically be added into Chargebee as a transaction and a payment will be automatically made through PayPal Express Checkout or whatever payment gateway you have selected in Chargebee settings page.
