Im using paypal to validate credit cards and purchases. I am using
project wonder. I am looking for an example of how I send the
information to paypal to validate the credit cards.I am finding a
wealth of info on receiving the responses from paypal but nothing
on sending them billing info ie: credit card# exp date, amount of
purchases ect.... Maybe I do not understand the framework that
well. I did read T.Cripps response but It mostly addresses the
response from paypal.
WOPayPal is not build for that. They have a SOAP API and some newer
stuff based on simpler http transfers. We implemented the SOAP API
for Express Checkout and some more stuff and also the credit card
handling.
But the PayPal SOAP API is, hmmm, how to say that ... well, it's
complex, documentated in lots of different places, and nowhere really
good. So you have to find the different docs on the PayPal site, get
the examples and try it out.
Credit card handling is called "Direct Payment" in the API
documentation. There is a document called PP_APIReference, if you
want or need to use the SOAP API.
<https://www.paypal.com/en_US/pdf/PP_APIReference.pdf>
There is also example code for the SOAP API. The last I heard is,
that they have a new API called NVPAPI (name-value-pair API) which
should be easier to use than SOAP, but I can't say anything about
that. We used SOAP and got it working eventually but with a lot of
pain. Some parts of the API description is not really clear and some
things are incorrect or out of date but the developer support at
PayPal is really good and they really help you.
