How to check the Paypal account has been verifeid or not - paypal

How to check the user's Paypal account has been verified or not.
We have used the below link to check the status of Paypal account,
https://www.paypal.com/verified/pal=
But this link is not working now.
So, can you help me how to check the verified status of the Paypal account.

You could use the getVerifiedStatus API to verify the specific account's status.
However you need to submit your application request to make the API call.
Please refer the guide for adaptive accounts.
The detailed parameters for getVerifiedStatus API can be found here.

This link is working in 2018

Obtaining PayPal Partner ID for Onboarding API

I'm using paypal commerce platform to onboard sellers.
Sellers are onboarded successfully and a merchant-id is generated after process is completed.
but when I'm trying to fetch their information from the following api (as provided by paypal docs),
https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/customer/partners/{partner-id}/merchant-integrations/{merchant-id}
I'm confused what is the merchant-id and what is partner-id, I only get merchantId after seller is onboarded. there is no partner-id
And Wow, look at their docs.
please see the doc image here
Partner id is refernenced as merchant account id.
what the heck is this.
If any body could help me. please it would be much appriciated. Please ignore the typos.
When calling partner APIs, you are the partner. Obtain your account's ID from the place explained in the doc image you linked, under Profile and settings.
For sandbox mode you'll need to log into the sandbox API calling partner account via the https://www.sandbox.paypal.com account interface -- using its credentials from the Developer Dashboard.

A Get Verified Status API provided by Paypal Adaptive Accounts.
On PHP you should have to integrate SDK "adaptiveaccounts-sdk-php-namespace-php" then using API call you can verified Paypal ID.
I suugest you use this parameter: payer_status=verified for IPN or PayerStatus= Verified for Express Checkout. According to PayPal this means the following:

customer has confirmed ownership of a bank account or has verified his
account status through other means.

PayPal API credentials for sandbox

I'm trying to implement recurring payments with PayPal in PHP. I found this example, which I'm looking into, but I need some API credentials. I created a PayPal sandbox account, and from there I created a merchant account. I'm trying to get the API credentials for that sandbox merchant account to replace the values in the example, but I can't find where. All the guides I find point to non-existant parts of the sandbox user interface. Does anyone know where I can find the API credential details for sandbox merchant accounts?
Thanks.
I'm beginning to I loathe PayPal. Spent an hour on their site looking for this, only to find it here on SO (works as of Oct-2014):
Live: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-api-run
Test: https://sandbox.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-api-run
To get API credentials in sandbox you must use the API Credentials menu in sandbox itself, instead of logging into the sandboxed account.
