I am unable to find any information related to integrating paypal express checkout with trigger.io would appreciate any help.
I have never done this myself but one solution would be to use the child browser or "modal" to pass over the data into a secure modal window and allow the transaction to continue on paypal while still "inside" your app.

I'm relatively new to payment integrations.
I'm just wondering if, it is possible for me to redirect customers to PayPal's checkout page by returning a url for the checkout page from the backend, instead of using PayPal's Smart button?
Tbh, I am having a hard time looking at their documentations. So please bear with me.
It can be possible, but it is an old integration pattern. For current web checkouts, pairing the smart button with a server-side integration is a superior UX in every respect. Here's the code to use for the approval flow: https://developer.paypal.com/demo/checkout/#/pattern/server
This way you never have to redirect away to another (possibly unfamiliar) site and back; your site stays loaded contextually in the background at every moment. Also it has an incline "Debit or Credit Card" button you can include as desired.
I’m developing a delivery application that will work with PayPal for payments. Ionic/Cordova has a native library that makes things easy, yet the flow is not the way i’d like it to be.
With “PayPal-Cordova-Plugin”, the authentication window opens for every payment and the user must click the button to confirm the payment.
What I would like to implement was something more direct, transparent. The user would authenticate with PayPal within my application and with the probable token that would receive this authentication, I would execute the checkout requests (an example would be the payment by PayPal on Uber).
With the PayPal developer documentation I could not find a way to perform this implementation on Ionic, so I would like help with that.
The old PayPal Mobile SDKs used by the cordova plugin are ancient. Do not use those. Do not use those for anything. If you try to use those, you are going to have a bad time.
The first paragraph at the top of the Readme of https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-Cordova-Plugin points you to the things you should be using instead.
As is mentioned there, PayPal Express Checkout via the Braintree Mobile SDK is a worldwide option for those who need a native SDK. It is documented here: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/accept-payments/express-checkout/ec-braintree-sdk/get-started/
You will need a webservice for the server-side portion.
I have been testing Paypal integration - on Sandbox - for a number of days and have found that, when the Paypal login is presented in a browser, everything is fine; However when the login environment changes to a popup/lightbox, the browser hangs and remains on 'loading' after a successful test payment has gone through.
I used PayPal integration wizard to generate the code and then amended it accordingly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as it's doing my head in!
I have seen this issue occur several times lately, as well as reported by a few of my customers. While I can't provide a definitive solution, I have had success with one or more of the following:
Clear the browser cacher. Shutdown and restart the browser.
Login to standard PayPal site, logout and restart browser.
Try a different browser to help identify whether there is something going on with that specific browser.
Switch between sandbox, live, and back to sandbox mode. This may require a repeat of step #1.
Contact Paypal customer support.
I typically resolve the problem before getting to #4, hopefully you will as well. Best of luck!
Is there any known way (an api or something of the sort) that I could use to create my own user checkout experience for Paypal?
So, for instance, the user clicks my donate button which takes them to my donate page. I collect the needed user information and pass it securely to paypal using some auth method without ever redirecting away form my site or using their "Customize your Payment Page" (which is entirely not customizable enough for me).
I've looked through their myriad of api's but haven't found anything useful yet.
Thanks!
This can be done using the Direct Payment API. In order to use it, though, you need to have a Payment Pro account with PayPal.
If you plan to implement it with FuelPHP, then there is a feature rich, driver based, package here.
As I've been integrating with PayPal, I've noticed that their sandbox UI is very different from their real UI.
When I set my button to post to sandbox.paypal.com, I get something like this:
But when I post to paypal.com from a browser that has never visited PayPal before, I get this:
Is there any way to setup the sandbox so its interface will be closer to the "real" PayPal's interface?
I've not seen it, but perhaps that's a New UI? The quote below is about all I've been able to find out about it though.
The Adaptive Payments consumer
experience will be upgraded to the new
PayPal payment flow design being
rolled out across all PayPal products.
The new UI will show the merchant's
business name instead of their email
address and will have a split slider
showing the payment breakdown on the
left and the login/approval on the
right.
David seems to be right — they are rolling out a new UI on the real site, but I guess the sandbox hasn't gotten it yet.
Also, clearing all my *sandbox.paypal.com cookies gives me a "pay with credit card" screen instead of the "log into PayPal" screen.
There is problem with new paypal interface, also mentioned in developer community forum on their website. many of the users are having problem since 1 month, and paypal is still working on it to resolve the issue.
