I am trying to send Product name and Its attributes(like size,color etc) to the pay-pal account so that merchant is able to view order details like cost, quantity,Product name,attribute etc on his PayPal account itself they don't have to migrate to admin panel of oscommerce to check the order details.I am searching for any supporting module for this purpose and getting "osCommerce PayPal IPN Module v1.0 For 2.2MS2" in search result but I don't think it is helpful for me.Apart from that I am trying to change the coding of Pay-pal module file(like pay-pal.php or pay-pal.php etc) so that I can send product name and its attribute to the PayPal account but nothing works for me.Can anyone suggest me something relevant solution for this as I am novice to Os-commerce and web-designing.
Thanks

Hi I'm creating a third party shopping cart using paypal for my client and i need retrieve some information after the payment is confirmed. I need to send an email to the seller with the product information like color, font-family, font-size, size of the product. But i have no idea of how can i retrieve the payment confirm information from paypal and then send to the seller this email.
Does someone knows how or just could give me a hint?
Thanks.
If you're not on wordpress, you can still use IPN data: have a read here: https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/classic/products/instant-payment-notification/
Note that Paypal's example code is not very good, and also that their IPN simulator is not currently working properly: Paypal IPN continually returns invalid from Sandbox
The PayPal IPN for WordPress plugin will make that very simple for you.
Just install the plugin and create a basic hook in your theme's functions.php file (or create a simple custom plugin file). The plugin has hooks so you can trigger based on any IPN, or based on the IPN transaction type or payment status.
Here is a link to the general dev guide and another link specific to the hooks available.
You could have the IPN solution working and sending an email within minutes, so then it's just a matter of building your email body the way you want.
I am not sure what this is called but here is what i am looking to do.
I am trying to make a php script that will create a link between our store account and paypal buyer, so that when they click our buy button it will process the payment without any future confirmations or user actions.
I have tried the paypal sdks and integration wizard no luck, Does anyone know of a working example of what i am trying to do?
Billing agreement(also called Reference Transactions) allows customer to agree the payment once on your website or app, then you call an API with the billing agreement ID to tell PayPal to charge the customer. Please see document here . You will need to contact PayPal to enable you to use Billing agreement, it's not easy to get approval:(
Integrating Paypal buttons are pretty straightforward.
Go to your merchant account.
Go to your Create Paypal Button page.
Choose whatever the button types you want. Configure it with Price etc.
Now just copy and paste the code generated.
It just works.
P.S
There is an option in your merchant account page to set the returning address from Paypal. You can set a returning page and catch all the transaction details via HTTP Post method when it is called by Paypal.
There is this Sandbox account type in Paypal which you can do a lot of playing with.
I already uses PayPal as a payment method but I want to add the option to use credit card. I know you can use it by choosing the paypal option but my customer/friend want people to be able to choose it directly but still being transferred to paypal's website credit card payment.
-Credit Card
-Paypal
-Invoice
Can anyone help me figure this out!
You can achieve this using Paypal Payments pro.
You can follow these magentocommerce links to configure paypal payments pro in your magento store,

I am doing paypal integration in my website in a section called stores where an user can sell his products from my store. And i am storing the paypal accounts of my sellers to pay him directly when customer purchase something from his store in my website. Is it possible to put my logo on the paypal checkout page where the seller email id i'm passing will not be mine(Since each sellers will have their own Paypal Business email id)?
Yes, you can make it using PayPal Express Checkout. No need for upgrading to Pro, and paying a fixed monthly fee.
When setting up the express checkout transaction, you have a parameter that tells PayPal which images to show for branding.
https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/ebook/PP_APIReference/expresscheckout.html#1144280
The parameter name is called cpp-header-image which make sure it's delivered through HTTPS otherwise the browser may ask the user is he/she want to see only the securely delivered content.
There is something called "PayPal Payments Pro", which allows you to have many options over a typical PayPal account. From X.com (a great resource for learning about the Paypal API Stack), I was able to pull the following link for you (which explains what you are wanting to do)

The php script oscommerce uses for paypal express , and other paypal modules only sends the buyers name and email when they order something. I found a quick fix for a different paypal module that sends all the useful information when some one buys something ,i.e. address what items they bought and quantity.
i found this fix on the web here, but it is for a different paypal module is there a fix for paypal express? This will be extremely helpful for me, thank you
if needed i can send the php script for paypal express , its over 400 lines. I added the code to paste bin here
is there a fix for paypal express on the web some where or can some one help me to get paypal express to work thank you
What you have to do is to add some parameters into the post request. In your pastebin file (which is not the latest version of the module) it is about lines 197-201.
You can find the list of parameters here: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_api_ECCustomizing under "Integrating Order Details into the Express Checkout Flow" section.
If you have at least basic PHP knowledge it will not be a problem for you to do this. If something is still not clear please ask.
