You can give this Paypal NVP API example in C# (asp.net) a try: http://brad.w3portals.com/2008/02/paypal-nvp-api-example-in-c-aspnet.html

Tries to give a simple example to get you up and running quick. The paypal SDK example are not that great. Cheers.

Answer 4

You'll have to use Paypal IPN for that. My site runs with Perl, but the way it basically works is as follows:

1. Customer fills out an order form at my site with their name, address, email.
2. Customer is being redirected to Paypal
3. Upon successful payment via Paypal, Paypal calls my IPN-compliant script
4. My script sends me an e-mail notifying me about the completed order

If the customer does not pay within 30 minutes or so, my database also sends him a reminder with a Paypal payment link for the respective order.

Download the ASP.NET E-Commerce Start Kit, which is now "DashCommerce". It has PayPal implemented. http://dashcommerce.org/
