I'm having a problem with a PayPal button that I made. Yesterday I got my first sale of a digital good on my website, everything worked well except at the end when PayPal blocked the payment.
I called them to know why and they explained me that it was because the order was made for physical products and the shipping information was missing.
They unblocked the payment but I can't find how to set that the payment is for digital goods.
My code below:
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post" target="_top">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="my email">
<input type="hidden" name="lc" value="IT">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="product">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="00.00">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="EUR">
<input type="hidden" name="button_subtype" value="services">
<input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="rm" value="2">
<input type="hidden" name="return" value="mysite">
<input type="hidden" name="cancel_return" value="mysite">
<input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-BuyNowBF:btn_buynow_SM.gif:NonHosted">
<input type="hidden" name="custom" value="userid" />

Your code is correct to not collect shipping for a digital good, no_shipping=1. Ref: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/Appx-websitestandard-htmlvariables/#paypal-checkout-page-variables
Perhaps you were misinformed as to why the payment was on hold.
One thing you can do is to ensure the item name makes clear that it is something digital.

1, Add EUR currency to your Paypal account using this link
like this screenshot
OR
Go to > Account Settings > BUSINESS PROFILE > Money, banks and cards > Currency management
2, Remove these two elements from your form
<input type="hidden" name="rm" value="2">

Help me please with this problem.
I am using the PayPal IPN System which works perfectly in sandbox mode. All the payments went through successfully and my site updated as required. So, being ready to go live, I change my sandbox links to live links:
$action = 'https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr';
But now, whenever the payment form is posted to this address, it ends up at
https://www.paypal.com/webapps/hermes?token=...
which just shows a blank page. No error_log is created on my server.
Here is my form data before the link to PayPal is clicked.
<form name="frm_payment_method" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post" target="_blank">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="payments#domain.com">
<input type="hidden" name="notify_url" value="http://domain.com/ipn.php">
<input type="hidden" name="cancel_return" value="http://domain.com/cancelled.php">
<input type="hidden" name="return" value="http://domain.com/success.php">
<input type="hidden" name="rm" value="2">
<input type="hidden" name="lc" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="GBP">
<input type="hidden" name="page_style" value="paypal">
<input type="hidden" name="charset" value="utf-8">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="1 Credit">

<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="1.50">
<p><button type="submit" name="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Proceed to PayPal</button>
Cancel</p></form>
Of course, replacing domain.com with my own correct domains.

The payment transaction is completed successfully and the redirect is done perfectly to my application. But the problem is i didn't get any response in that page. I tried var_dump($_POST). It retruns null. Don't know why i didn't get any response. Any help is appreciated.
Check the following link and update your paypal account.The response is in $_GET
