We developed a E-Commerce website. Customer will come and purchase products in our site, we get payment by paypal-pro payment gateway.
Our need is, any possible to store credit-card data in payal for the particular account/user. If saved that user give all the details in the site at first time instead of giving every time of purchase.
Kindly let me know if it is available in payal or any other payment gateway.
In other words:
In paypal pro, user gives their card details, at that time we need to save those details. Next time if that user comes and purchase a product, we will get the amount from the card that was we already saved.It is not good to save those details in our server. So I need to save those details in paypal or any other payment systems.
If the client is based in the US then they can get a true merchant account and use a payment gateway like Authorize.Net. Authorize.Net offer the Customer Information Manager (CIM) API which allows for the storage of credit card details on their server thus reducing PCI compliance and security issues.

I am working with the recurring payment in paypal, all thins are working fine for me, but i am stuck with one issue, i need to do refund, i research for that in paypal, i read that we need transactionid for refund, but when we use recurring payment in response they doesn't give transactionid, when we create profile for recurring payment paypal provide us ProfileID which is unique identifiers, so how can we refund payment for recurring profile ?
It's recommended that you use IPN to save a local history of payments related to profile IDs. If you need to refund a particular transaction you could then pull the transaction ID out of this history.
PayPal provides a basic IPN template here, and there are other more complete solutions available on GitHub / Packagist.
Another option would be to use the TransactionSearch API. You can pass in a Profile ID to get all of the related payments associated with that profile back, so then you could pull the transaction ID of the one you need.
Of course, for the actual refund you can use the RefundTransaction API.
All of these API calls can be made easily with our PayPal PHP SDK if you'd like to take a look at that.

I want to implement paypal recurring payment without any specific billing cycle.
Consider this scenario:
customer buys a service from my account which is charged on usage basis for example downloading content from site. Here's what I want to:
1) Customer get authorized by paypal whenever s/he chooses paypal at my site.
2) Billing starts when customer first download content from my site.
3) Recurring payment whenever the data limit of user is about to cross the maximum threshold for example 1 GB.
So there is no fixed billing cycle and same authorization for all recurring payments until user chooses to stop paypal as payment option.
Is there any feature on paypal that supports this type of tranzactions.
Regards
Since in your scenario the billing cycle and the time period is not fixed you can make use of PayPal reference transaction where you will create a billing agreement with customer and then for all the future payments you can use that billing agreement Id to charge the customer at per their usage for any amount . You can find more information here :
https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/classic/express-checkout/ht_ec-refTrans-SetEC-DoRefTrans-curl-etc/
https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/classic/express-checkout/integration-guide/ECReferenceTxns/
And at later time if your customer wants to cancel the agreement they can cancel it from their PayPal account or you can use API's to cancel it .

I am having a technical problem. I am capable of making a paypal transaction call from my php website. It is an auction website. Sellers put their product on line for auction, and buyers bit. For each successful auction, the payment can be processed as a PayPal transaction.
But how can I take a cut (service fee, $1)? I am thinking of two API calls, but that requires the buyers to pay twice.
Is there any way to do it with PayPal or I need another transaction service, like Amazon Flexible Payment?
Thank you very much.
There's no way of routing a part of the payment from a user's PayPal transaction to yourself. You might be better off selling vouchers ahead of time that user's can use for each transaction. That way they're not forced to make two transactions at time of purchase.
You could initiate a transaction from your account to the payee, this wouldn't require the user to commit two transactions.
I strongly recommend Stripe.com whenever I get a chance too. The API is very easy. You can accept payments with Stripe, then when the transaction clears, have your server send the remainder to the Paypal account of the seller.

i'm trying to build a paypal payment and credit card payment system with paypal. The site that I'm trying to build is with a credits system like istockphoto and it's in php. I've seen there're a few types of payment methods from https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/library_documentation#wps , but don't know which one to use. Which one is better Express Checkout, PayPal Payments Standard, or Digital Goods Integration? Thanks in advance.
i believe is better to question paypal staff since they know better, but in my experience the standard way to checkout with paypal is payments standard supported in many countries and currencies but don't wait for credit card checkout (virtual terminal) since is supported in limited countries, instead you should ask for international payment gateway providers for these kind of features.
hope it helped

Is it possible to accept credit card on site with PayPal ?. So when a user pay using his credit card the cash will be transfered to my paypal account. If it is possible, then which payment method I should use ? Express Checkout or something else ?
Thank you guys
Set up a business account with PayPal and read the documentation for their Express Checkout integration.
Under this method, the customer is redirected onto PayPal's site to perform the payment - either with an existing PayPal account, or using their credit/debit card if they don't already have one - and then redirected back to your site. You'll be able to use the PayPal API to ensure that the funds really have been transferred, and the money will appear in your PayPal account.
If you want the customer to remain on your site (i.e. enter their card details into your form), then you'll need to look into Website Payments Pro, but bear in mind that handling the card data yourself obligates you to comply with the PCI DSS, which may be an extra burden you don't need.
