Their IPN API makes it easy to automatically process payments and there are examples for several languages. Unfortunately, they do not have an API to handle refunds. They must be done through their web interface. On the plus side, they allow you to create extra logins for an account that only have certain privileges, which is useful for customer service people. PayPal has higher fees than a merchant account, but they are acceptable for low volume or as a secondary processor. The only issue I've run into is that the first time you go over a limit for a month ($20k), they won't let you touch the funds (but can still accept payments) until you send in extra documentation. -- David Phillips <david at acz.org> http://david.acz.org/ _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
