PayPal

Technical details about how we implement PayPal and how to get started developing with it.

Developing / testing sandbox
Buyer account
This is the account you'll use to make the (fake) payment. Go to https://developer.paypal.com/developer/accounts/create, login with your personnal PayPal account then create a test account.
Merchant account
1.Create an app here: https://developer.paypal.com/developer/applications/create​
2.Use the generated merchant credentials to set the following variables in API's .env:
PAYPAL_ENVIRONMENT=sandbox
PAYPAL_APP_ID=APP-________
PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID=________________________
PAYPAL_CLIENT_SECRET=________________________
1.Create buyer's credentials on https://developer.paypal.com/developer/accounts/create​
And you're ready to go. Use the credentials generated in step 3. to authenticate when ordering.
Known issues
The button may require multiple clicks to trigger on dev or staging. It should not affect production (see https://github.com/paypal/paypal-checkout/issues/471)
