I am working on an old website which uses PayPal as one of the gateway. I need to editing header and footer texts (image embedded below) on PayPal website. I searched a lot on PayPal dashboard but can't find way to get into these settings.
I've all the credentials of this PayPal account, any help is highly appreciated.
Login to your PayPal account.
Under My Account, click Profile.
In the My Selling Tools section (left side), click on Update next to Custom
payment pages.
Click the Add button. Choose a unique name for the
payment pages style.
Specify the URL for the logo image. Make sure it
is on a secure server. It’s optional but shouldn’t be. Specify the
secure URL for the header image. Input all of the colors that you
want to change. You can then Preview how it looks, then Save when
complete.
This way you can add your customized header image instead of displaying
"Arvind kumar Test Store"
The header that is displayed is your business name. You can also update your business name here

I have integrated Express Checkout with my application it works fine but sometimes paypal payment pages behaves very oddly. When user is directed to payment page, the page it shows is not same all the time. sometimes it shows saying "Login or Checkout as a Guest" and sometimes user see a page saying "Login as paypal or Create an account"
I have attached the image url Please see the following links.

First layout makes sense. but second layout creating confusion when it says "create an account"? is that means creating paypal account or what? when i click on the option it simply shows me credit card details to enter. i dont know if that is related to the payment or asking to create new paypal account?
PayPal has been split testing the old EC pages with the new ones that you're seeing sometimes. In order to work with both sets of pages nicely, you'll need to make sure to add an additional parameter into your SetExpressCheckout request.
It looks like you're already using the following (and if you're not, you need to add them)
SOLUTIONTYPE=Sole
LANDINGPAGE=Billing
You need to also include the following to work well with the new pages.
USERSELECTEDFUNDINGSOURCE=CreditCard
I have created my own Buy Now button where the amount is entered in a text box on my web page by users. My Paypal id hard written in this form. Is it possible to save this button in my own Merchant account?
Use the Standard Integration Wizard to create your button. Step 3, I think it is, in the process asks if you want to manage inventory for the button. If you click into the details for that one you'll see it has a check box for "Save to my PayPal account" which should be checked by default.
When you create a button with this option it gets saved in your button manager and can be adjusted in the future if you want.
If you're familiar with web service API's you can also use the Button Manager API to generate buttons that are saved in your account. If you're working with PHP my class library for PayPal will make that very simple for you.
I have a PayPal account and have multiple buy now buttons on my site to allow users to purchase multiple tiers of my services. The issue is on the checkout page, the link at the bottom says "Cancel and return to me#foo.com" which is my email and I want to change it to my website's name.
I don't have a bussiness account and I managed to change it on the sandbox account, but I can't remember how I did it. The "cbt" tag isn't working for me either.
This is how it looks:
I know that if you're using the Express Checkout API you can set that value using the BRANDNAME parameter.
With Payments Standard, though, I'm not sure you can do it. You could check your PayPal profile under Custom Payment Pages. It may let you adjust that there, but then it would be the same for every site.
Express Checkout is the only way you could customize it per website/checkout.
YOU CAN DO IT IF YOU HAVE A BUSINESS ACCOUNT ON PAYPAL SITE.
Business accounts will display the business name on the account providing you have the Business Name field populated in your Account Profile.
Login to your Account.
Click on the Profile link.
Under Account Information.
Click on Business Information.
What do you have for the Business Name?
If you don't have a Business Name there, next to the Business Contact Name, click on Change Name.
Select the Radio Button for Business Name Change.
Click on Continue.
Make the changes and save.
Logout of your Account. (All done :)
Next delete your web browser's cookies, temp files, history, etc., then close your web browser, reopen it and retry one of your item buttons. Go throught the PayPal Screens to see if anything has changed.
Is it possible to Customise paypal Business name/Company name which comes on top left of paypal checkout page. Actually I don't want to show my Business name in checkout page.
The easiest thing to do is just log in to your PayPal account, go into the profile, and then into Custom Payment Pages. Create a new custom page profile and then you can add graphics/logos to make that checkout page look a lot nicer and say whatever you want.
The graphics used there need to be hosted on an https:// server. If you don't have one of your own you can use this free service to host them for you.
I have a webapp, where users sell printing services, I want to allow my users to add a pay now buttons to their pages so customers can pay for their services.
My users specify their paypal email address etc in the settings and set up their services with a price etc.
What API should I use to create the pay now buttons on the fly ?
Thanks
You don't need an API for creating "pay now" buttons. You can either create the button from within your customer's Paypal accounts or dynamically generate with HTML (see HTML Variables for Paypal Payments standard).
One advantage of creating the buttons from your/their Paypal account is that you can get an additional layer of security (support for encrypting the form or using a hosted button id so user cannot change the amount submitted to Paypal).
However, if you deal with hundreds of different buttons then it makes more sense to dynamically generate the buttons and just perform additional validation when Paypal sends back the confirmation (either through PDT or IPN) before shipping your items.
You could use PayPal's JavaScriptButtons API and create your buttons dynamically with:
paypal.button.create(business, data, config, parentNode)
There is an button manager API that let's you create secure buttons - here is more info: https://www.x.com/developers/paypal/products/button-manager
PayPal offers different buttons based on your requirement.
Follow these steps to generate PayPal button:
Login to your PayPal Account
Click on Tools --> All Tools
Click on PayPal buttons
Now you are given few button options --> Buy Now is one if them.
Follow those three steps and then copy the code at the end of 3 steps and paste it in the page where you want this button to appear.
You are good to take Payments!
