Answer 1

paypal is a ref. You're currently passing to paypal_sdk the ref itself and not the inner value, which would be the template ref's element. To fix this, pass the ref's .value.
Your onMounted code is not properly invoked, as it must be passed a callback.
import { onMounted, ref } from 'vue'
export default {
setup() {
const paypal = ref(null)
onMounted(/* 2 */ () => {
const script = document.createElement('script')
//...
script.addEventListener('load', () => {
paypal_sdk
.Buttons(/*...*/)
.render(paypal.value) /* 1 */
})
})
return {
paypal
}
}
}

Answer 2

The reason why you are getting that error is because you are using option Api onMounted life cycle hook, instead of doing that use the vue 3 life cycle hooks for onMounted.
First you will have to import it from vue like this.
<script>
import {onMounted} from 'vue'
then you are going to use it like this.
return it as a call back function
onMounted(() => {
//all your code should placed inside here and it will work
})
</script>

Here is my answer using the paypal-js npm package
<template>
<div ref="paypalBtn"></div>
</template>
<script>
import { onMounted, ref } from 'vue';
import { loadScript } from '#paypal/paypal-js';
const paypalBtn = ref(null);
onMounted(async () => {
let paypal;
try {
paypal = await loadScript({
'client-id': 'you_client_id_goes_here',
});
} catch (error) {
console.error('failed to load the PayPal JS SDK script', error);
}
if (paypal) {
try {
await paypal.Buttons().render(paypalBtn.value);
} catch (error) {
console.error('failed to render the PayPal Buttons', error);
}
}
});
</script>
