getting a Paypal sandbox account

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

 

I'm trying to test my PayPal setup. I read that I need a sandbox account on PayPal.. and to get this, I have to register for API access. It is asking me to choose between

 

Grant API Permission or Request API Credentials

 

Which should I select?

 

Or is there a better way of testing PayPal setup????

 

Thanks for all your help!

Maybe this will help someone answer the question:

 

Grant API Permission : "Select this option if you have been instructed by your shopping cart or solution provider to grant them permission to make API calls on your behalf."

 

Request API Credentials : "Select this option if your website will make API calls directly or if your shopping cart or solution provider requires you to use your own API credentials."

 

I'm sure someone knows the answer to this!!

Or how to get a test account!!

 

Thanks in advance!

Nancy

Hi Nancy,

 

Have you sorted this out? I'm also interested in the answer.
