How to set up a PayPal sandbox “Seller” account, a “Buyer” account and an Application Tutorial

Question

I am trying to set up a Web site which is using PayPal. Unfortunately the PayPal developer site/concept is heavily changed, so all tutorials I found are seem to be useless.

Answer 1

Seller account = Business account

Buyer account = Personal account

You probably only need to create one of each in Developer Sandbox Accounts , but there's no limit if your testing requires some more

To obtain the new REST API credentials, create an App in My Apps & Credentials and select the sandbox Business account to use

Legacy APIs: If testing an old integration, you can still get Classic NVP/SOAP credentials for a business account by viewing its "Profile" within your list of sandbox accounts
