I have created multiple sandbox accounts in paypal developer. I have enabled business pro on all these accounts in order to receive direct payments. However, with the business pro accounts that are created with a country not in the USA, the curl command to send a direct payment returns a 10501, invalid merchant configuration, where as the US account on succeeds. The curl command is from the classic API which I believe should also be available for Australia. Is there something im missing?
PayPal Payments Pro or Website Payments Pro is available only in US,UK and Canada. Yes, it supports AU merchants for Website Paymemt PRO Hosted Solution. AU merchants, PayPal does not officially promote Dodirectpayment. Instead you can use Payflow to do DodirectPayemnt

I've recently tested sandbox on paypal. But I have to have Paypal Pro enabled to complete my transaction. According to information provided to paypal, the standard account should accept credit card.
(https://www.paypal.com/ca/webapps/mpp/compare-business-products)
So do I need to purchase Paypal pro to accept credit card or was this only required in sandbox?
Thanks
No, you do not. The basic, free account is enough. The Pro accounts simply come with premium features, like being able to process transactions without your customers needing to leave your website. The basic account redirects them to Paypal long enough to complete the checkout before redirecting back to your site.
My company uses woo commerce on a wordpress platform to manage our online orders and is going to use quickbooks online plus for accounting. I'm looking for an integration solution between woo commerce and quickbooks online plus to post the online order automatically to quickbooks online plus when the order has been processed in woo commerce. So far I had no luck at all. We purchased a plugin from 60extensions only to realise it's for quickbooks desktop version, not online version. I have searched everywhere and asked the quickbooks online support but no luck!
Does anyone know a solution for this? Even a different shopping cart that can be integrated to quickbooks online?
Thanks!

You can build this integration using QB V3 REST APIs.
You must have OAuth tokens to connect with your QB account data through REST endpoint. For that you need to have your customer(app's end user) go through the 3 legged OAuth flow. To generate access token and access secret corresponding to a QBO account, user's intervention is a must.
But once you have those tokens, you can store it in your program and use the same in all future communications between your app and QB account data.
To start development using QB API, you need to create an IA apps in Intuit's appcenter.
https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0010_getting_started/0010_signup
From the above link you will get - apptoken, consumer key and consumer Secret. You can use the above 3 keys in IPPOAuthPlayground(PFB link) to get the access token and access secret corresponding to your QB Online account.
https://appcenter.intuit.com/Playground/OAuth
Using the above tokens, you can call any REST endpoints against your QB Online account. For development purpose, you can use IPP provided devkit.
https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0055_devkits
If you just want to test this endpoints against your company then you can use APIExplorer tool as well.

You can have a look at IPP's marketing site - http://apps.intuit.com/ to see if you get any suitable plugin/saas app for this use case.

We're developing a service for customers in Malaysia and would like to use Paypal Express Checkout for payment processing
According to the paypal documentation:
Malaysian Ringgit
Note:This currency is supported as a payment currency and a currency balance for in-country PayPal accounts only
When trying to run test payments in Sandbox mode, the checkout process errors out:
"This transaction is invalid. Please return to the recipient's website to complete your transaction using their regular checkout flow."
I'm able to proceed using USD or SGD as the currency - so I believe the problem is only when I'm using MYR.
Paypal advertises Express Checkout on it's Malaysian site, so I'm sure it's available to malaysian customers - the question is how can I test that it's working?
Any insight would be appreciated.
Our .NET website uses Google Checkout to handle credit card processing and we need to migrate to another credit card service because Google Checkout is going away. Google Checkout used a .NET webcontrol that was easy to use and did not require that our site actually capture the credit card on a SSL site.
Does anyone recommend a replacement for this type of service that is easy to integrate using ASP.NET and leaves the security to them? Google provided a link to Braintree in their announcement but when I looked at that, it looked like we have to capture the credit card info. I'd prefer not to have the risk.
As #Aristos has mentioned, you can look into PayPal and/or Amazon Checkout.
Both of them provide alternative/3rd party checkout services - which is what Google Checkout is (was after November 2013).
Braintree is a payment processor and is very different from Google Checkout and any other checkout services - they offer credit card processing services (just like Authorize.net, Paypal Payflow, etc.). You will need to have/apply for a merchant account and comply with PCI DSS requirements when using such services (although they have services that minimize your PCI DSS work).
Google Wallet for Online Commerce (aka "Instant Buy") is a "layer" on top of such - which is the Google product/service that will "assume" the role of the "payment flow" (I hesitate to call it a "payment service" as it's really not) for merchants selling physical goods. It will work with (in fact require) your existing payment processor.
Wallet for Digital (aka "In-App Payment"), as the name implies, is the digital (product/service) counterpart of "Instant Buy". This is still a 3rd party checkout service - meaning it's still Google that handles the credit card processing (just like Checkout does/did). But it's primarily for digital merchants (selling digital products).
I have a requirement of integrating paypal in one of my asp.net website.
But I need to have a facility that One could pay through Paypal by using a credit card even if they don't have a paypal account. For credit cards, I don't have any idea of how can it be done through paypal development portal.
So can anybody let me know how to go about this and any reference link where I can find some details for this.?
I think one of the option I should go with is: PayPal Website Payments Pro but I have no idea about that and Is it a free service or a paid one.?
Thanks in advance.
PayPal Payments Pro does allow you to process credit card transactions using the Direct Payment API's. That product is currently available to US, UK, and Canadian merchants. The REST credit card process mentioned is only for US merchants at the moment.
Payments Pro isn't free. There a $30 a month fee.
Payments Standard and Express Checkout are both free and don't require that your buyers have a PayPal account but they are required to redirect to the PayPal site to log into their account or enter their credit card information.
If you have a more specific question I can help you further.
You can make credit card payments via the new PayPal REST API. Depending on your use case check the documentation for sale (directly charging a card), or authorize and capture. You also have the option of storing cards in the vault for later use.
I do not know whether you have gone through the Paypal developer's FAQ. Please go through this link once-

Ideally to integrate paypal to a development site, A business account needs to be created.So when the user clicks on the pay now button on your site you send that userId and password to Paypal webservice and authenticate yourself as business user. it redirects to teh paypal site after authentication. So even if the user does not have an account with paypal they can pay using paypal(Which authenticates your site).
All the paypal integration is paid service.
