i really dont know why this is not a part of the docs , but the bundle is capable of setting checkout parameters out of the box ...
here is how i have done it
$form = $this->getFormFactory()->create('jms_choose_payment_method', null, array(
'amount' => $price,
'currency' => 'USD',
'default_method' => 'payment_paypal', // Optional
'predefined_data' => array(
'paypal_express_checkout' => array(
'return_url' => $this->router->generate('payment_complete', array(
'order' => $order->getId(),
), true),
'cancel_url' => $this->router->generate('payment_cancel', array(
'order' => $order->getId(),
), true),
'checkout_params' => array(
'L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_NAME0' => 'event',
'L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_DESC0' => 'some event that the user is trying to buy',
'L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_AMT0'=> 6.00, // if you get 10413 , then visit the api errors documentation , this number should be the total amount (usually the same as the price )
// 'L_PAYMENTREQUEST_0_ITEMCATEGORY0'=> 'Digital',
),
),
),
));
error code can be found here
SetExpressCheckout Request Fields here
i will provide a pull request to the documentation as soon as i can .. :)
