How can we use Payflow to split the amount I have got from a transaction made by the user. ie, Customer paid $10 for an item. I need to take $2 and send the rest to the merchant. Is it possible in Paypal Express Checkout? How can we do it with Payflow Pro?
Any helps will be appreciated
You need to use Paypal Adaptive Payments to accomplish this.

Can we use php api to create recurring system with paypal account or credit cards?
Can we use api to apply subscriptions coupons?
Thank you.
Yes
Haven't seen that before, but you can simulate everything in a sandbox if that's what you are looking for.
If I recall correctly you don't get the last 4 digits, but you do get the expiration date.
Yes
Not sure, didn't have to implement that.
I want to know if I can split amount request on a paypal pro request. I use PayPal_base.dll and create DoDirectPaymentRequest or DoExpressCheckoutPaymentRequest. But I want to know if I can split or use Adaptive Payment to send money in two different account.
You can use adaptive payments to split the payments using Express Checkout, but not with DoDirectPayment.
Here is some info on setting up adaptive: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/adaptive-payments/ht_ap-basicChainedPayment-curl-etc/
and the Express Checkout guide: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/express-checkout/gs_expresscheckout/
With paypal is possible to store the credit card of the customer (that has put during the registratin process) and take an automatic payment (so not initiated by the user himself)?
Which paypal payment solution should i use?
This is a very broad question, so I will give you a very broad answer. There are a number of different ways to do that depending on your goal.
The following APIs would give you what you're asking for in various ways.
Express Checkout / Payments Pro Recurring Payments
Express Checkout / Payments Pro Reference Transactions
Adaptive Payments, specifically Preapproval and Pay.
Currently I am working with several non-profits (who receive recurring donations normally monthly) to migrate away from their current gateways to Paypal.
Is there any way to import their currently donor's payment information into Paypal?
If not which would you recommend to help migrate their donors over?
1) Setup a special section of their website and as donor's to re-subscribe?
or
2) Send out Invoices for their current recurring amount (if its possible to email a subscription)?
thanks,
This depends on what type of system you are currently using, and specifically what type of service you are going to use from PayPal. Are you going to be using PayPal's Recurring Payments, Enhanced Recurring Payments, Subscriptions or Payflow's Recurring Billing? If you have all of the contributor's information, such as credit card info, name, address and etc and you are going to be using PayPal's Recurring Payments or Payflow's Recurring Billing you could use the API's to create the profiles on your PayPal or Payflow account without having to have the contributor do anything on their end. If you are going to be using PayPal's Enhanced Recurring Payments or Subscriptions, then you would need the buyer to re sign up for a recurring donation. You can could use either option that you mentioned above. You would be able to do either through PayPal.
is it possible to make a payment with user's paypal balance using Direct Payment? I know that Direct Payment offers recurring payments but I'd like to use it not only for credit cards but for paypal account balance too. Is it possible or not at all?
Thanks
Only the Express Checkout paypal api allows it...
Check out the documentation for paypal's Express Checkout

I do not believe that the Direct Payment option allows it at all.
