How do I setup my account with Paypal?
All the integration with Paypal is done for you when you use Quixly. We just need your Paypal Merchant ID. Here's how to do that:
- Open a new window and goto: www.paypal.com
- Login to your account. If you do not have a Paypal account, you will need to sign up for a Paypal Business account. Once logged in, click on the "Profile" link in the sub navigation at the top of the page.
- Your Merchant ID is at the top of the page called: "Secure Merchant Account ID". Copy that ID.
- In a new window, navigate to your Quixly account.
- Once you have logged into your Quixly account, click on the "Settings" link at the top right of the screen.
- Paste your Merchant ID into the field called: "Paypal Merchant ID", under the "Merchant Accounts" tab.
- Click save.
You also need to give Paypal your Quixly information so they can notify us when a payment is made. Here's how to do that:
- Open a new window and goto: www.paypal.com and login.
- Once logged in, click on the "Profile" link in the sub navigation at the top of the page.
- Then click on the link called: "Instant Payment Notification Preferences".
- Copy and paste your Quixly API URL into the field on that page called: "Notification URL".
- Your Quixly API URL looks like this: https://YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME.quixly.com/paypal/YOUR_API_KEY
- Your Quixly API Key can be found by clicking on the "Settings" link inside the Quixly application.
- Example of Quixly API URL for Paypal: https://valio.quixly.com/paypal/1234abc567
- Next make sure to select the "Receive IPN messages (Enabled)" option on this Paypal page.
- Click save, and your done!
