| Summary | 0004991: Payment gateway: PayPal | ||||
| Description | We have implemented PayPal's PayPal Payments Standard (the buttons)/IPN/PDT APIs. There are 3 other non-legacy APIs they have which we do not currently implement: 1) https://developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/ (JavaScript API, with JavaScript callbacks instead of IPN) 2) https://developer.paypal.com/api/rest/ - for local payments 3) https://developer.paypal.com/api/nvp-soap/payflow/ - for if you have your own merchant account (Website Payments Pro is deprecated by the REST API) (SOAP is deprecated by the REST API) (Website Payments Pro Hosted is deprecated by the JavaScript API) | ||||
| Additional Information | PayPal is a horrible company: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33348913 May implement local payment support via OmniPay library (http://omnipay.thephpleague.com/gateways/official/). If we do that put a note in other payment gateway issues that OmniPay supports as now supporting local payments (but payment button work may still be desired), and document. | ||||
