stripe.js allows to associate a customer id with credit card. So, I don't need to store credit card and can still make payments multiple time for the same customer without asking for credit card details again.
Is there a similar flow for Paypal?
PayPals new REST API allows you to store a credit card in the vault, which will assign an id/token to it. You can then use that credit card token in future payments.
Following on from Finn's answer:
The advantage of Stripe.js is that there's no need for you to ever handle the customer's Credit Card info - it gets sent straight to Stripe's servers and never touches yours.
From the link he provided, it looks like you first have to process the credit card info on your severs, then send it to PayPal - although I suppose you could use Javascript to get the credit card info out of a form, create a POST request using jQuery (or similar) then retrieve the credit card info from the response and put that in the form - much like you have to do with Stripe.js

I was able to implement credit card payments on my website. Now my problem is how do I identify if the credit card account is fake or a fraud. What I am doing is I store the credit card info using the vault api then I get those stored accounts for the user to choose what card they will use to purchase my product. However, i can't find a way to add some more validation on how to check if the user is the real user of that credit card account. Right now I can enter any credit card number by just using a card number generator and it directly submits the payment. I can see in my sandbox merchant account that the payment was successful.
So is there a way for me to prevent this?
Thanks to those who could help.
Processing a zero value payment authorization request is the most common way to authenticate the card details are valid without actually taking payment.
I have just added Paypal SDK, installing products to be paid through credit card using Paypal SDK instead of paying through Paypal Redirect.
Does this mean if you pay by entering your credit card details using Paypal SDK, you still have too register the card with paypal, in order to pay by the card?
there are 2 major ways to do that.
First, let Paypal handle the processing. you need to save the card or reference, for payment management, such as refunds. or if it's recurring payments, updating the card. that way paypal returns an ID you can use later for management.
this is done by redirecting to paypal with payment creation (via Paypal UI).
Second, if you wish to have your own UI without redirect, you can use the API to send credit card details, but then you also need to save the card details somewhere. if you wish to self-manage the cards, then you have to become PCI-compliant, which is a major security concern (you can't just keep the numbers and cvv).
Or, you can use Paypal's "Vault" service via API to save the card, while inserting the card details in your UI, then you can use payment with the returned ID. you can use the ID for future management functions.
If you need more help, try using Paypal's support, or add more details on what API's you're using, etc...
I am using clickfunnel order form and i want to offer credit card and paypal payment and user information need to go into the infusionsoft. How can i do this ?
Infusionsoft provides API that you can use to save information to this CRM.
In order to save PayPal payment information, you'll need to develop a script that accepts PayPal IPN notification about processed payment.
I'm not sure about the best way to do this, but here are a couple of ideas:
You could use Braintree to process the payment, since Braintree already accepts both paypal and credit card. And then you can set up an Email integration on the Clickfunnels order form to integrate with an Infusionsoft web form. This won't transfer the credit card information into Infusionsoft, but it will transfer Name and Email into Infusionsoft.
You could also add a Paypal button to the order form. This will take people to paypal to process the order. And then you might be able to use something like Zapier to move some of the customer's information and order information into Infusionsoft.

For PayPal, look at the following.
DoReferenceTransaction - This will allow you to hit somebody's credit card to process an amount without authentication so long as you've done a prior Authorization or Sale using the same credit card. So you could have people run an Authorization on their card just to ensure it's good and get a transaction ID that you can use in future DRT requests.
DoNonReferencedCredit - This will allow you to load funds onto a credit card without referencing any previous transaction (so it's different than a refund.) Keep in mind that when you send somebody money this way you won't get refunded fees like you would if you used the actual RefundTransaction API, so you may want to consider that.
You'll want to go through the detailed documentation for Reference Transactions, of course, to get a good understanding of it.
You'll also need a Payments Pro account to be able to process credit cards directly and utilize these features.
If you happen to be working with PHP I'd recommend using my class library for PayPal. It'll make the API calls very simple for you.
I’m building a site to be based in Australia and I have been researching into saving credit card numbers. Currently I have not had much luck with my questions. Paypal was of little help.
The site will run on many small transactions. I plan on using the paypal gateway to handle payment both via credit card and paypal accounts.
What I would like to do is retrieve user’s credit card details so they do not need to input them each time.
How I imagine this to work is that the first time a customer will input their credit card details to make the purchase. Once this purchase has been completed the site will receive a transaction ID from paypal. I then save this ID for future reference mapped to the users ID or email address.
So the next time the user wishes to make a purchase via their credit card I can forward this transaction ID to paypal and it can already have all the fields populated with their card details. Or display a screen with the last 4 digits or similar and ask the user if they wish to use this card again.
This is all assuming that the user does not have a paypal account.
Is this possible? Is there a better/more cost effective solution than this?
Your understanding isn't too far off. When you submit card details to PayPal (or any payment gateway) you should get back a token id. You would store that token id instead of the card details, then at any future point you wish to take payment you submit the token id (along with payment value etc)
By only storing the token value (and not the card details) you free yourself of most of the hassle with PCI compliance. PCI does allow you to store part of the card details in plain text (at most the first six and last four digits), so you could safely store these along with your token id. That would allow you to display these details and ask 'use this card again'
An example of this is documented at PayPal's site here:
