PayPal + FoxyCart: Which Account Do You Have?

Please read the below and choose the instructions according to the type of PayPal account you have. It can be confusing, particularly in the UK, so please read carefully. Check PayPal's Official Explanations on the different types of accounts they offer (excluding the Standard accounts).

PayPal Standard (“Express Checkout”) is suppored as of FoxyCart v060. This is what you'll need if you want people to pay using their PayPal account, and requires the user to login at PayPal.com (for obvious security reasons).
- Setup and troubleshooting notes.
- Subscriptions through PayPal Standard are not supported as of v060.
If you have a PayPal “Business” account then it's very likely just a “PayPal Standard” account. If you're not paying anything monthly to PayPal ($30/mo in the US) then you don't have PayPal Website Payments Pro.
If you do have PayPal Website Payments Pro and you do not login at manager.paypal.com, view the setup instructions here. These instructions should work for all countries that support Website Payments Pro.
If you have a PayPal account in the UK:
- If you have “Payflow Pro” in the UK, you may need to attempt both the Website Payments Pro and the PayPay Payflow Pro instructions. There are conflicting reports as to which method actually works, and since the UK has had both solution with similar names in the past things aren't as clear cut as they should be. Please see this forum post for additional discussion.
- If you have “Website Payments Pro” in the UK and login at manager.paypal.com, you'll need to view the instructions for both PayPay Payflow Pro and [docs:paymentgateways:paypal_website_payments_pro_us|Website Payments Pro]]. Again, please see this forum post for additional discussion or to comment on your own situation.
