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.

I use IPN in my website. The request is sent to https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr . It works fine before.
Few weeks ago I notice that even the user choose to pay without paypal account, they are forced to create an account. As it is showed in the first picture. At the bottom of that page, it asks the user to create an account. They can not skip it.
But if I change the country to China (in the first picture, I change the country to China), then the page layout is changed to the old version. As it is show in the second picture. In this page, the user do not need to create an account to make the payment.
My question is how can I go to the old page layout directly?
I called paypal, this is their issue and they said they are aware of it, no ETA. They said they have not emailed clients affected by this at all. I ran into the same issue with my clients, this blows...

Hi i want to change the name when redirect to paypal from my opencart store,i installed paypal standard and set up but i dont know how to change that name,thank you
"Websites" is actually your business name, this can be changes from your PayPal account setting as I've list the step below ;
Go to PayPal.com and log into your PayPal account
Click “Profile” link in the top navigation menu.
Find and click the link “Business Information”. The field “Business Name” will be the name that is shown to customers in the PayPal hosted page. Enter your business name.
Save.
When you try to checkout, the business name you desired will be appear.
I'm developing a marketplace which allows users to list items for sell. When an user buys something my application calls the PayPal API and sends the buyer to the Express Checkout page. I've been able to change the logo on the header and some other fields, however I'm not able to change the text "Cancel and return to -selleremail-". I would like that instead of the -selleremail- it showed my website name. According to what I been reading so far, you need a PayPal business account to change this text, however, I've seen that for instance on Etsy, in the same checkout page, they have managed to change this text, even if they, like me, aren't the receivers of the money.
Any idea?
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'm not a programmer, a developer, or a genius. I'm a semi-intelligent person who wants to build a single-serving Web site that provides a simple service for a fixed price.
So I just need to test a single "Submit & Pay" button that I've built using a Machform form. You fill in the form, press the button, and it directs you to Paypal to complete the payment.
Everything is working until I get to the Paypal part. But I don't want to start paying Paypal fees just to check if it's working okay.
There seems to have been a Sandbox option in the past on Paypal, but after creating a basic Sandbox account, it... doesn't work. Links go nowhere, and even the main site (cms.paypal.com) goes to a 404 page. The "Getting Started with Sandbox" link goes to a broken page. The "Sandbox User Guide" attempts to load a PDF on a site I don't know, and don't trust.
The "Sandbox" options on the main site -- when they don't go to the semi-broken, I-guess-abandoned "Sandbox" site -- go to developer.paypal.com, which is way too much gun for me. Even a Google search for "paypal sandbox" now leads exclusively to developer.paypal.com links.
I just need to confirm that my "pay" button will execute correctly in Paypal; I don't need to build a multi-platform API that configures my JavaScripts to execute a parallel-stream optimization option on a scaleable interface across mobile devices with integrated IPNs and a side of fries.
What's the best way to do that?
The sandbox is indeed what you need for testing, and you do need an account at developer.paypal.com in order to use it. It's not a complicated thing, though. You don't have to get all crazy with it if you don't want/need to.
Go to http://developer.paypal.com and login there with your PayPal account. Once logged in click on Applications and then go to Sandbox Accounts.
Use the Create Account button to create at least 1 seller account and 1 buyer account. For the seller account just make it a business account. For the buyer account you can make it personal or business.
Launch your sandbox seller account and login to that. This is your fake PayPal account that you can use just like your own. From within that account you can create buttons just like you do from your live account, and you can place those buttons on pages to test with.
Then when you launch that page in a browser and click on the button it will send you over to sandbox.paypal.com instead of the regular paypal.com, but it will all look very similar to what a buyer would see during payment. You can use the buyer sandbox account you created to complete the purchase exactly as you would with a real account.
After that you can login to the seller or buyer account to see how things would look for each person in the transaction.
