Larry L Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Greetings, I noticed Chapter 6 (pg138) mentioned how authorize.net is comparable to using PayPal's Website Payment Pro Solution. How simple would this process be if all the instructions in Chapter 10 are followed with authorize.net? I definitely agree with abigail that there is a vast amount of information out there and much of what I found seemed to be designed for advanced programmers. I created the testing environment and downloaded the PP.PHP.NVP file which contains sample code for name-value pairs. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hello Larry, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking about here: using Authorize.net for the first example or PayPal's Website Payment Pro for the second. But in either case, it shouldn't be that hard as the principles are largely the same (the latter change is more directly comparable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in either case, it shouldn't be that hard as the principles are largely the same (the latter change is more directly comparable). Greetings, Sorry for not being very clear with my question. However, you did answer what I intended on asking. Thanks! For some reason, I am having a hard time integrating Website Payments Pro in the coffee example. I was able to fully utilize the authorize.net example and everything worked like a charm! Would you be able to provide any assistance with integrating Express Checkout? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I can certainly try, but mostly it'll be me looking through the PayPal documentation to find you the answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry L Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 I can certainly try, but mostly it'll be me looking through the PayPal documentation to find you the answers. Hello, I went as far to purchase:Paypal APIs Up and Running by Michael Balderas. The book mentions an Express Payment Integration located at: https://www.paypal-labs.com/integrationwizard/epaypal/main.php I have attempted the integration many times and no luck..... Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Well, I'm happy to try and help, but need specific questions to answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry L Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Great! What would be the code to integrate Paypal Website Payments Pro (Express Checkout & Direct Payment) into the coffee example? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Okay, that's a big question. I'll look into it and see about writing a blog posting explaining how to use PayPal Website Payments Pro for the Coffee site example. Just so you're prepared, it'll probably take me some weeks to do all that. I'll post a link to it here once I've done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theaceofthespade Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I tried to post a comment to that, but mistakenly hit trackback, so I'm not sure where on your site it went... so... sorry bout that... Anyway, I wanted to ask, how do you use Express checkout without leaving your site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 You use Website Payments Pro and then use the Express Checkout API. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
