Adding paypal and "add to cart" to my wamp server - php

I have added the ability to register on my site using wamp (phpMyAdmin). I would like to know if anyone could give me adice on how to link papal to the account and also have a cart that goes along with it. Are their any suggestions on how to do this? I have accounts set up but i am not sure how to make it so that someone can use their accounts to have a cart ad paypal.

Yes it is possible to implement a PayPal payment system in your website but we're not able to tell you how, because it is way to complex and would fill a book. Best solution is to check out by yourself and if you get problems, ask specific questions.

You could also use magento - a commercial online shop software - as it is a very good shop system. It comes with a integrated PayPal checkout.

Paypal express checkout - buyer details

so I need to ask a question, I need to setup a simple paypal express checkout system, that one can allow users to change currencies, and two can then update the page with the updated currencies.
Then I need a way for me to get the order information. As I will be selling website templates so I need a way for me to get their email address, so I can then email them with the link to the template file download.
So my question is what data do I get if I set up an express checkout system. And what code do I need, Do i need to create a database to get the returned data back from paypal? Or do I just get an email or can i see that when i log into my paypal account and check orders and see their details that way, but the main important detail i need is their email address?
Can I also say that this is the first time I have looked into express shopping carts. So I am a complete novice in this field, So I will struggle with the coding aspect. But I think it is the route I need to go down.
Also I want to make it all in php as well. But also I don't want to use ready made systems. I just need the back-end code so that I can then just implement it into my current design. Not sure if paypal give you the code when you click the express shopping cart option in All tool section. I did notice though it redirects to a page that lists many partner sites. I couldn't find anywhere for any implementation advice or tips or code.
EDIT: Also I know I will also need to use either IPN or PDT but the documentation I read is highly confusing and just is making me unsure if I can even set a system up. I also read that you should implement both systems, but I also read that that had a risk of doing the payment twice. So yeah i am kinda a bit unsure how to even go about implementing a system I need.
Thanks in advance.

Integrate Paypal checkout laravel php

I'm currently developing a little shop system. Now I want to integrate a simple PayPal checkout. Just want to press checkout, log in to PayPal (as a customer), click pay and that's it, I get the money and he gets a confirmation.
Now, for Laravel I found 2 plugins, both relying on this. But somehow I don't come clear with those. Also, I found this, but its too old and different now, using Laravel 5.3. I also found this tutorial, but it also doesn't seem to be what I need (at least I guess so). I already created two sandbox accounts, a personal and a business acount, and I also have a user key and secret key.... But now, how can I use them?
What's the easiest way to just implement a quick way to checkout, entering some product data, the complete price and just be able (as a customer) to log in and click okay? I don't want more basically.
I'm using netshell/paypal for my current POS App. It's pretty good and not complex. Check their documentation from here.
If you are using 5.3 why not go with the new cool Cashier? https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/billing

Paypal. Payment information page

I use payment via paypal and I need the customer to enter secure payment information on my webpage.
After reading tutorials, I need to set action to paypal => "https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" and the customer to complete their data on paypal website.
Is it possible to have customers enter card data on my own website? Can you offer any advice or manuals on how to implement this?
Thanks. Sorry for my English
Is it possible to have customers enter card data on my own website?
Yes it's possible. Is it advisable? Not if you don't have to.
If you are passing the user to PayPal to complete payment, there is absolutely no reason for you to collect the CC data on your own website. All you do is add to the customer's risk as well as your own (since there are certain legal ramifications if you screw something up).
If what you are asking is how can you do the entire process on your own site, then that's a different answer and a pretty involved one. PayPal has options for this with different plans and each of those options has plenty of documentation on how to setup and configure the process.
As #butlerblog mentioned, there are different levels of integration for ecommerce. If you truly want to stay away from paypal but are considering your other options for third party integration, you can check this site to start getting an idea of how involved with ecommerce you want to get.

receive payments with paypal

I'm creating a really small website where I'll sell some products.
I need this website to show the available products, the users can add to the cart, and pay at the end, then I'll send the product for them by my self. It's a really small business.
I was taking a look at the paypal options and I didn't understand very well how it works.
For what I understand, with a free account I can only use their buttons, but I can't have a dynamic solution where I can manage my products on my website (look's like I need to add the products information like name and price on their website ).
What I wanted to do was just use my own website to handle this very simple store/products, and at the end, the user click on a CheckOut button, and Then I redirect the user to a paypal page where they can pay for the total value and then paypal redirect them back to me ( as a free account or at least with the 5$ account ).
Is that possible?
By the way I'm using CakePHP to build that, and I already have the website built with this framework, and to build what I need it's more than enough, I don't really need any solution like magento or others eCommerce platform.
Thank you.
If you use Paypal's free account then your visitor will leave your website, go to Paypal's website to make the payment, and then return to your website. Paypals paid version allows you to keep your visitor on your page, but you have to program you site to work with their API. Plus the cost can add up. Paypal also has other service other than just buttons. For instance they have a shopping cart too, but here again your vistor will leave your website to go to Paypals site to add the items to the shopping cart.
Another company that you might want to look at is https://stripe.com/ here you keep the vistor on your site as well as only paying per transaction rather than a monthly fee like at Paypal.
If you want to manage your items and inventory from your website and not enter everything into buttons at PayPal.com, I would suggest that you use Express Checkout. Express Checkout is also a free service and allows you to send all of the payments details to PayPal via API and PayPal will authenticate and allow your buyers to select shipping details. The user can then be redirected back to your website to complete their order.

Magento - Buy it now buttons and checkout process

Hey everyone! I was hoping to start using Magento for a very simple checkout landing page. I have a few questions regarding the capabilities of Magento:
1) I don't actually want to use the 'add to cart' button but rather a 'buy it now' button. So when a user clicks to purchase a product it automatically takes you to the checkout process. Does anyone know if this is possible to configure with Magento?
2) If I purchase an SSL certificate from somewhere like verisign.com can I keep users on my domain through the check out process? I'd also be willing to use something such as Google Checkout if it were possible to customize the look of the Google skin to match my site.
3) Is Google Check out like PayPal in that I transfer money from Google Checkout to a designated bank account?
Thanks all. Any help is greatly appreciated.
1.) Yes, it is possible. You could write a module to observe an event (perhaps checkout_cart_product_add_after) and automatically re-route the user to the checkout page.
2.) The SSL doesn't matter when it comes to keeping someone on your site. (If you checkout users on your site, you will need an SSL). The kicker is what payment gateway you utilize. Some payment gateways will require the user to enter payment information through a different domain than your own.
3.) As for how Google checkout works, I'm not sure. I have never known anyone to actually use it. Most people I know just use authorize.net. I'm sure you can easily find more information just by Googling it.
