I am working on a PHP website with Google checkout Payment. I need to get the transaction id in the merchant calculation page using API Call back url. What method can I use for this?
Google Checkout offers a service similar to Paypal's IPN where they send all of the transaction information to a URL you specify. This includes the transaction number.

i'm using CreateInvoice.php this code for creating paypal invoices. But problem is just like express checkout and formal paypal checkout i can't figure out how to add notify_url , cancel_url, return_url while creating invoices.
And in samples i can't find how to accomplish this job.
The parameters you are asking about are not relevant to the invoicing API.
notify_url is to specify an IPN URL. The REST API does not use IPN, though. Instead, it uses Webhooks. You can register those manually within your REST App in your PayPal developer account, or you can set them up with the API.
cancel_url and return_url are used with things like the checkout APIs so that PayPal knows where to send the user when they make those actions. The CreateInvoice invoice API would not need this, though, because there is no redirect to PayPal / login happening with the user.
Instead, it's simply using your API credentials to create the invoice and give you a success or fail result. Based on that result you can redirect wherever you want. Again, you're never leaving your app in this case, so you don't need to specify where to be sent back.
Hope that helps.
Basically I want my users to associate PayPal account in their accounts for identify verification purposes. I am developing a marketplace site and wanted to integrate paypal as my identity verification procedure.
Is there a way to verify email address, first name and last name using PHP like using $_GET variables or $_POST variables? If there is can you show me how?
I tried search and I get Adaptive Accounts GetVerifiedStatus API. But that totally new to me, I don't know where and how to start.
Your best bet here is to make them start, but not complete, an Express Checkout. A normal Express Checkout (referencing Classic but REST works the same way) looks like this
SetExpressCheckout - Tell PayPal you want to authorize $1.00 and have them log in and authorize the payment
GetExpressCheckoutDetails - Take the token from step 1 and get their PayPal account details. Included in this is PAYERSTATUS, which will tell you if their PayPal account is verified or not
DoExpressCheckout - You won't do this, but this is where you finish the process and get funds. Since the data you want is in Step 2, just ignore it and the session will expire.
You could implement GetVerifiedStatus API to determine whether the specified Paypal account's status is verified or unverified.
To use that API, you need to submit the application request to Paypal for approval first. Submission portal link here.
Then use the GetVerifiedStatus API call directly, refer to API request fields,link.

I write a PHP script with cURL that should approve a payment in PayPal.
It work like this:
I got this link from website:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?VERSION=3.2&cmd=_express-checkout&token=EC-7ND07251WN147471E&useraction=commit
the token is a temporary uniq id of payment.
on this page I insert credit card/PayPal account.
then, I redirect again to the website of the seller for final confirm.
I need to write a script that will approve payment by his token.
the script will take the token from given link, and will approve the payment.
I searched a lot in google for solution and I find some PayPal API's.
When I started to dig the API's I find out that those API's are only for sellers.
Those API's let the seller integrate PayPal checkout to their website, but there isn't any function that can help me do what I want.
Anybody know about any solution?
Thanks!
PayPal offers some SDK's here http://paypal.github.io/
You would want the Merchant SDK. There is a PHP one in there you can use to help build your DoExpressCheckoutPayment call. I don't know if anyone would provide you with a custom cURL script to submit the payment - I would be interested in seeing it if one is provided.
DoExpressCheckoutPayment is also function for the seller. after the buyer pay, he redirected back to the site of the seller, and then the php code in the site execute the DoExpressCheckoutPayment function. I look for the function that will approve the payment instead of the buyer(me).
Im haing a problem iv been researching for weeks now on the paypal API but i just can't figer how to do this.
I need there to be a button on my website which then it goes to paypal.
Once you have paid the chosen amount it goes to a php page which updates the database though php.
You have to turn on paypal ipn in your paypal preferences. Once paypal has the money it sends you a transaction back to your server. In the script that accepts the transaction you can have it update your tables.
Documentation : https://www.x.com/sites/default/files/ipnguide.pdf
generally you pass a notify_url parameter with the request, and set up a page which handles and validates IPN notifications, and PayPal will send requests to that page to notify you when payments/refunds/etc. go through. That IPN handler page would then be the correct place to update the database to mark orders as having been paid.
i found a tutorial here: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/php/using-paypals-instant-payment-notification-with-php/
I found more suitable the PayPal NVP API instead of tradional IPN (Instant Payment Method)
You can find several code examples for PHP (including very similar to your problem and more advanced) in the library code for NVP samples
I'm looking for a way to build a web application using paypal payments standard. I'd like the user to get redirected to paypal, then fill out their information, and upon completion, add a value in our database saying that they successfully paid. I haven't found a solution or answer to this.
I found this thread for RoR, but didn't find anything for PHP
Paypal Website Payments Standard with a Ruby/Rails application
You can see instructions for a Payment Data Transfer at PayPal's site. Basically, you post the transaction amount and an ID token to their site, the customer pays on paypal.com, and then they're sent back to a pre-defined URL on your site with the transaction details.
I used the NVP API to do that.
