One Paypal business account. Two websites with different settings - paypal

I have this situation.
One Paypal business account.
Two websites.
Both websites have a Standard Payment integration - a HTML form submits to PayPal with products and shipping price.
At the moment I'm being asked to integrate the following changes.
One websites should have delivery price ranges for USA only.
Another should accept payments from Canada only.
As I don't want to integrate IP2Country on my bespoke e-shop solution, is it possible to set such things in PayPal?
I know you can set delivery price ranges.
And I know you can ban countries from accepting payments.
However is it possible to target different websites from one PayPal account.
Maybe add another email?
How would you approach this?
Thanks!

You could do this via the Payments Pro API, where you just adjust the calls to suit each site's needs. The downside is you would have to have an SSL certificate and more PCI compliance.

PayPal Rest API Send Money from Personal Account to Personal Account

In my Windows-Desktop App I want allow to transfer money from one Personal-Account to another Personal Account. What is the best way to do that?
Using Payouts seems to requiere a business account for the money sender.
In some countries, PayPal can facilitate fee-less "friends and family" payments from the PayPal balance or funding sources that don't charge significant fees, like bank accounts. If this is what you are looking for, all you can do is have the receiver of the payment create their own https://paypal.me link and direct the sender there, or if not using paypal.me then direct the sender to https://www.paypal.com/sendmoney to set up the transfer themselves.
Otherwise, only payments for "goods and services" are possible. There are many ways to set up a PayPal checkout between two accounts, and the receiver's account type is generally not of much importance although this may vary by country due to local legal regulations. A web page with a standard PayPal Checkout to pay another account can be set up with HTML/JS, so you could have your app show a browser with such a page. Alternatively, the much older (~20 years) integration method that uses a full-page redirect is to create a link with this template:
https://www.paypal.com/webscr?cmd=_xclick&item_name=purpose%20of%20payment%20goes%20here&amount=100&currency_code=USD&business=emailusername#example.com

Accept Prepaid Card PayPal REST API

as the questions implies, I am in the process of deciding on a payment gateway solution for an online financial service. The gateway should allow customers to pay using prepaid cards without providing a phone number, address, legal name, etc. Ideally the gateway will also allow instantaneous access to cleared payments, but this feature is less important. Will PayPal meet either of these requirements when using the REST API and the direct payment system? I was unable to find a concrete answer in the documentation. If not, are there any competing payment processors which offer support for charging prepaid cards without identify verification? Thanks in advance.
As of now, no U.S based payment processors allow processing prepaid cards without some form of identifying information about the customer, and PayPal is no exception. However, a representative from PayPal mentioned that a feature allowing anonymous payment has been requested by many merchants and is in development.

How to accept subscription payments for services on my website that would go to multiple users

I am building an application that has two types of users: owners and buyers.
When a user signs up for a payment subscription to the services offered on the website, the system checks to which owner those selected services belong to and should then make that subscription payment go to that owner. So basically, users have no idea that payments go to multiple people. As far as they are concerned, they are just selecting certain services on our website and signing up for a monthly recurring subscription payment. The system then decides where that subscription money should go.
So, how can I do this? What possible systems can I use? I have looked into two: PayPal and Stripe. I can see how I might be able to use them for this if I get really creative, however I just wanted to ask you guys to see if any one has experience in doing something like this and what is a good way to do this.
Thank you.
Here're description about PayPal Adaptive Payment, you need setup preapproval and Chained Payment .
In this scenario, you act as Primary Receiver. You can setup the payment that Primary Receiver keep certain percentage amount ($10 in in 2nd picture), or distribute all payment to multiple receivers (service providers). It's up to your business logic.

Paypal on multiple websites

I would like to know if it was possible to sell products across multiple websites with a single paypal account?
I do not see any options on my management interface.
thank you
Yes, you can. PayPal makes it easy for sellers who use different brand names to manage multiple lines of business.
Therefore, you can setup your PayPal buttons or PayPal API to your individual websites.
For eg:
If you want to link your websites to your Single PayPal account for a Website Payment Standard button, then you just go ahead and create your button from PayPal(button factory)
and then use the generated button code in either of your websites.
Also, it's easy to receive payment notifications and manage orders by using a different email address for the two lines of business. More info here

Multiple Websites - One Website Payments Pro Account?

Is it possible to have one Website Payment Pro account with Paypal but process payments from multiple websites? I have found the following link https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_payflow-pro-faq-outside#Can_I_use_one_Payflow_Pro which states:
"Can I use one Website Payments Pro account for multiple websites?
Yes. You can use a single Website
Payments Pro account to process credit
card payments for multiple websites,
as long as all the payments are being
deposited into the same Internet
merchant account."
However, when I call the UK sales number, they state that "multiple" actually means only two websites and they have to be selling the same product.
Is there anyone who has any experience with this? Who is correct, the site or the sales hotline? Also, does anyone know any payment gateways that allow multiple website to flow through one account?
Many thanks,
Chris.
Unfortunately, PayPal cannot confirm this either way. Their website still says that you can accept payments from multiple accounts. I will have to go elsewhere.
