I integrated Paypal into my mobile APP and I use the REST API Calls. If I pay the ordeers using paypal account, It works succesfully, but if I use Direct Credit Card Payment (when the user doesn't have the paypal account), Paypal System return an error:
"The merchant does not accept payments of this type"
I don't found in my Paypal Dashboard where this payment type could be enabled.
Could you please help me?
Thanks

Following are checklist you should verify, probably following is the basic reasons for an error.
1: Be sure the merchant account has Pro permissions. Also, be sure the
app has gone through the developer-approval process.
2: Also, be sure the app has been approved. The app has basic
permissions until you submit it for approval.
3: You may have a Business account but to accept credit card payments
in the live environment your account must be approved for Paypal.
4: You should contact PayPal Developer Support. File a ticket at
PayPal merchant technical Support. Click on the Contact Technical
Support link to file a ticket.
5: You can call to PayPal Customer Care, They will verify your name,
DOB, Verification Code (Code will be shown in your PayPal Dashboard in
Customer support page) etc, they will fix your issue in a minute or
they will help you to fix your issue.
As per my experience to solve this issue I had to subscribe to the Website Payments Pro Hosted Solution.
There is no setup fee but there is a monthly fee and a transaction fee.

When I use the link on paypal developer to access paypal sandbox, the page return the message "500:Internal Server Error". If anyone can provide any advise.

I wonder if anyone can help me with this problem. I receive this error from my iOS SDK, for 2 attempted requests:
2015-01-22 16:14:32.238 Page Advisor Consumer[6442:607] PayPal SDK: Request has failed with error: UNKNOWN_ERROR - System error (UNKNOWN_ERROR). Please try again later. (400) | PayPal Debug-ID: be3d18e185478 [live, PayPal iOS SDK 2.8.2]

I wonder what cause this error. Because when I use direct payment REST API there seems to be no problem at all. I already use US Account. Please tell me if i need to provide anymore details. Thank you guys!
UPDATE::!!
I have done further testing, turns out that Mobile SDK somehow cannot create transaction in SGD if connected to a US account, while REST API allows it. Turns out the SDK needs Singapore Account in order to proceed.
The problem is Singapore Account cannot use the newest SDK. Any solution for this? I really desperately need the newest SDK to work with SGD, because the current REST API allows it.
Thanks
I looked up the debug IDs you provided (both Live and Sandbox) and they were all failing for the same reason: unsupported currency for direct credit card transactions.
SGD is not a supported currency for Direct Credit cards with the REST APIs. A list of supported direct credit card currencies can be found here. SGD is a supported currency for PayPal payments with the REST APIs. Since the mSDK sits on top of the REST APIs, the supported currency list for REST and mSDK are one and the same.
As for the error message itself, I will put in a request with the appropriate folks to see if we can display something a bit more informative.
I have a store, based on opencart, and to this day I have two types of payments configured, one is paypal express checkout and the other is paypal website payments pro, for both options I needed to enter info like api password, username and signature, info that is the same for both cases - and double checked - when someone buy something and pay with paypal express checkout it works wonderfully, but when they try to use paypal website payments pro it says that there's a configuration merchant error. Checked and double checked, nothing, re-create the credentials again, nothing, I don't know what else to do I was wondering if someone around had the same error and if there's a solution for this?
Thanks a lot!

Invalid Merchant Configuration means that DoDirectPayment is not enabled on your PayPal account, which means you don't have Payments Pro active.
It could also mean that Pro was approved, but you never agreed to the $30/mo payment. That agreement would show up in your overview when you login to your PayPal account.
Another possibility is that you've been approved for "PayPal Payments Pro 2.0" which uses the PayFlow API instead of the DoDirectPayment API. In that case, DDP would not be enabled on your account and would result in the error you're getting.
Have you been paying the $30/mo to PayPal for Pro?
I am using Paypal Pro on my site and when I run any transaction, I get this error message.
"Invalid Merchant Configuration"
Can anyone suggest anything???
I am running out of luck ;(
you have not agreed to the billing
agreement, or the billing agreement is
disabled or inactive
— Paypal API Error Codes
I've received that error message in a few scenarios, including:
When my PayPal Payments Pro account was not configured correctly due to an error on PayPal's side.
When I hadn't "Set Up" my PayPal Payments Pro "Hosted Pages" screen.
