You need to become a paypal partner, then you can put your BN code into the PayNow button you generate.

We have our own custom products that we sell. We are entering into a partnership where someone will be using their website to send customers to us. Their customers will pay with our Paypal button on their website, once we receive payment we ship out the product and pay a portion of the profits to them. On paper this sounds good but we have no idea how to execute it. How will we know the sale came from their website? How do we set this up without them needing access to our Paypal account?
Any ideas on where to start? Thank you, it's much appreciated!
Please, hire a developer to set this up for you. As it is, you're basically asking people to complete a project for you completely for free - that isn't what this site is about.
I have a client that wants a site that hosts sellers selling items and allows buyers to purchase the items. She wants all the money transactions to be between the buyer and seller and she collects a percentage of the sale. She wants her percentage to be automatically put in her paypal account. Kinda like eBay for example.
I have used paypal standard with buttons but have never done anything like this. Does anyone have any suggestions about how I would get started and/or how this is done?
Thank you for your suggestions,
Greg
Many people would (and probably will) recommend using some sort of split/chained payment solution, but I will just point out that the site you mention, eBay, does not use split payments. eBay sellers register with eBay; eBay faciliates the sales and bills the sellers for their fees. You can do the billing through invoicing, or via preapproved payment/billing agreements (which allow you to collect from sellers without them having to send you each payment).
While this solution requires you to do a little more work (tracking sales & billing) it is a lot more flexible.
I'm trying to create a custom form with the ability to process credit card direct donations, as well as paypal account donations, and the ability to select whether the amount paid is a regular monthly donation or a one time. I cannot find documentation anywhere on how to use the paypal REST API for donations. There doesn't seem to be an intent type for donation anywhere, or any option for monthly or one time payments. Does anyone have any experience with this? I understand how the commercial payment API works, but I'm not sure what options need to be changed for donations.
The easiest way is to add Buy Now button to your site. It is just plain HTML code, no server code is needed. When someone donated you recieve email with details including amount of payment and email of donator. So you can reply him "Thank you" :)
Please note, in some countries you should verify your paypal account before accepting payments. It can be done in "View limits" menu.
In our system, invoices are made with cronjob before few days (say 10 days) and are emailed to customer from system. Now our client need facility, that from email only, user can click on paypal button and proceed for payment. Can anyone let me know how to do that? I searched on paypal site and they said, you have to generate invoice from their system.
Thank you

You could use the Invoice API's to send out an invoice from your account. You can find more on the Invoice API's here. There are also some SDK's and code samples on PayPal's Developer site as well that will help you get started.
I want to integrate paypal in my website. But my requirement is, I dont want my customers to go into paypal site for payment. (I know it is not a secure way, but it is my requirements) Is there a way such that I can do credit card checks in backend using paypal APIs ? If so, which method to be used? I want it for "singapore" country and SGD as currency.
Waiting for your suggestions!!!
Thanks in advance. :)
Are you trying to avoid your users having to navigate to PayPal or are you trying to 'hide' the use of PayPal?
The prior should be easy enough to resolve. PayPay provide several tools (and instructions) on how to build a "Pay Now" button, which you can manipulate server side to include a dynamic amount and order ID etc. This would forward the user to a PayPal page to login and confirm payment, then return them to your site (any page you specify) on completion. You can also link this to an IPN. The PayPal payment page can be skinned / branded to an extent.
What you are looking is called Direct Payment. Here is more info about it:
