I am building a website where people join and create an account to sell music to visitors and receive money through Paypal. The steps would be.
Persons buy music and send money to members Paypal account, then a response from Paypal should be sent to website, to verify payment and then insert results into database and send link to buyer to download music.
I basically have everything else, but not sure which Paypal service to use in order to achieve the above results. I was looking at IPN but that involves the member(seller) setting a response URL in their Paypal account in order for the response to be send to the website.
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
You can use Website Payments Standard, Website Payments Pro, or Express Checkout to do this. You are also correct about the variable "notify_url", this will allow you to pass over the IPN URL in the button code so that it does not need to be set in the PayPal account.

i am sure no issue with banks accounts only from paypal side.
This is a decline message. If all payments are being declined, it may have something to do with your business type or other account settings, but only someone on PayPal's end would be able to look at your account and research these declines.
It is not an integration nor a programming problem for Stackoverflow.

When using Woo's Plugin you have to define an IPN for the orders to update automatically. Here's some info to help.

In the sandbox: When using a PayPal chained payment for a payment with credit card PayPal wants you to use a credit card that is not already linked to an existing account. Unfortunately all the test credit card numbers that I could lay my hands on are already linked to test accounts, or in any case they can't be used.
For instance when I use card number "5555555555554444" (a test MasterCard number) the error message I get is: "You cannot use an e-mail address or card number that belongs to an existing PayPal account. If you have a PayPal account, please log in. If you don't, please change the e-mail address or card number and try again."
All other test credit card numbers I tried give the same message.
To answer my own question, since it might be useful for other users....
The approach that worked for me is to go to http://www.getcreditcardnumbers.com/ and generate a bunch of random credit card numbers, then use one of them.
Thanks /me for this great answer! :-)

I want to implement paypal in my app(because i can not use in-App purchase for physical goods).
I want to know the initial process to implement the paypal. i.e any app_key, money receiver account info etc.
I want to know what kind information will be required(which paypal will require) to start the paypal integration
How it will know that to whom account money to transfer.
There are two ways to integrate Paypal with the iOS application i.e. 1) MPL - Mobile payments library : Launces Paypal window on the top of application window. 2) MECL - Mobile express checkout library : Launces in a webview
You can use MECL to implement PayPal. PayPal has provided sandbox inputs to be used. Once you develop the app, you need to submit it to paypal. Paypal will verify and test your application for various payment scenarios and security as well. Once they approve, they(Paypal) will provide you with a production env id number. USe that number in the app and upload it to app store.
And here is the link to PayPal Dev center which has all the details you need.

I have a development taking place that I would ultimately like to deliver as an SaaS website. I currently have no experience in this sort of platform and I am looking for guidance on a few things, namely:
What providers should I be looking at?
Should I utilize an API or hand-ball the customer to the service provider?
Monthly subscriptions..
..honestly, where do I begin?
I know that PayPal provide all sorts of payment options and I have experience using the IPN for one-off payments, but I'm wondering if there's a better alternative.
..is it too much to hope for a provider that handles basically everything and only notifies me when someone doesn't pay/get's declined in the same way the PayPal IPN notifies of payments?
Any help is appreciated.
Another alternative would be Braintree, a company that supports "Non-US users". We are now available to merchants of all sizes located in Europe and Canada and you can accept payments in 130 countries worldwide. We provide everything you need to accept online or mobile payments, including a payment gateway, merchant account, and recurring billing. Disclosure: I work at Braintree
The Ruby gem ActiveMerchant supports many payment gateways. If nothing else, it can serve as at least a list of options to check out. http://activemerchant.org/ specifically the names of these files, https://github.com/Shopify/active_merchant/tree/master/lib/active_merchant/billing/gateways
Keep in mind that YOU DO NOT WANT TO STORE CREDIT CARD INFO Once you do, then you have a world of hurt with financial compliance certifications. Many payment gateways will give you a "token" you can charge.
Basically, the flow works like:
Customer gives CC info over SSL (usually HTTPS )
You forward that info to your gateway, never storing it on a disk
They give you a "token" to charge that card, you store the token.
Stripe and Braintree have already been suggested. Other options might be Square and Authorize.net
In my experience payment gateways normally don't do the recurring billing. Basically, you have to write code to submit charges. This leads to questions like, "How long is a month?"
