I have a paypal manager account for https://manager.paypal.com/.
I want to test some api calls for recurring payment profiles. But I don't have sandbox for the same.
Can anyone know how to create a sandbox for this account?
Not sure if this is what you’re looking for. From what I can see here.
Paypal Live or Test Transactions

I am building a marketplace app and want to include payment via PayPal with Braintree (see documentation: flutter_braintree). Right now I am working with a braintree sandbox trial account.
As far as I am understanding it correctly, I have to save the braintree tokenizationKey for every company to enable payments directly to them and not to the marketplace. Due to test reasons I included the tokenizationKey of my braintree sandbox account.
I am successfully directed to the PayPal checkout page where I can't login since it's in sandbox mode. When I select "proceed with sandbox purchase" I am then redirected to the application and do receive a BraintreePaymentMethodNonce.
Here you can find the screen where I can't login.
But somehow I can't see any transactions in the dashboard of my sandbox account.
Am I mistaken with the way tokenization works or where is the problem?

Use a sandbox buyer (personal) account from https://www.paypal.com/signin?intent=developer&returnUri=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.paypal.com%2Fdeveloper%2Faccounts%2F
If the companies only have PayPal accounts rather than Braintree accounts, you can use PayPal via Braintree and a braintree access_token from PayPal for authentication to get the client token on your server (no tokenizationKey)
I was also having the same issue. Now I found the solution. All you have to do is link you braintree sandbox to your paypal sandbox. Here is the process of linking your sandbox accounts.
Can you use a sandbox test account with a PayPal Payments Standard account or do you need to have a PayPal Payments Pro account?
Yes, you can and no you don't need a business account.
Steps

Is there a way to test paypal micropayments in the sandbox? I can see where to upgrade the test account to paypal payments pro. But i don't see one for micropayments. I am trying to verify smaller transactions.
While it does not make much sense to see the pricing of sandbox transactions change, you can contact MTS under paypal.com/mts
give them the e-mail address of the sandbox merchant account you want to enable Micro Payments for and they should be able to activate it for that account.
Can I test the PayPal IPN without actually making a purchase?
Is there a developer sandbox for testing the Request/Response functionality prior to actual implementation?
Basically, I have my server and would like to use the IPN feature to track my customer purchases and respond to a customer's purchase immediately. I would first like to test this out with dummy payments to ensure that the PayPal IPN and my server are communicating correctly.
Check paypal's site... the link is: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/sell/ipn-test-outside.
Sign up for a dev account, and inside there you can create test users and specify their paypal balances, etc.
Paypal has a developer sandbox here https://developer.paypal.com/

I'm looking for a explanation about how the Paypal Sandbox works. Let's say I have a real Paypal account through which I receive payments and I want to configure it on Drupal Commerce's Paypal module, but also I want to test the payment workflow first before making it live and let my customers use it, I see the Paypal configuration on Drupal has the following options under the "PayPal server" section:
Sandbox - use for testing, requires a PayPal Sandbox account
Live - use for processing real transactions
I assume that if I want to do "dummy" transactions I must enable the "Sandbox" option on the Drupal side so my question is
Is enabling the 'Sandbox' option the only thing I need to do in order to avoid real transactions being charged to my Paypal account? or do I have to create another Paypal account (the Sandbox account) and configure it on the Drupal side instead of my real account?
I was just wondering if the Paypal Payment plugin on Drupal needs a "Sandbox account" (different from my real Paypal account) or if by just enabling the Sandbox option it somehow signals Paypal about it and any transactions are just ignored while that option is enabled.
I'll apreciate if someone clarifies this a bit for me, I'm just starting to develop Paypal related stuff.
Thanks!
I recommend using a sandbox account from here
You cannot test a dummy transaction with a real PayPal account on PayPal Sandbox. It requires Sandbox account. So, you need a Sandbox account AND change the Drupal option to Sandbox for testing.
