PayPal Integration

Hello Guys, Looking for the first time in ages to getting up and running with processing credit card payments using PayPal. I have myself a PayPal Payments Pro account setup and paid for, now just looking to get up and running with the API to process the payments from our site. After a quick google around I've found this library which looks fine http://www.indiankey.com/cfPaypal/ has anyone had any experience with this or any other library? Cheers all, appreciate any pointers or advice anyone can offer, I'm sure some of you will have been through this in the past. Rob

We rolled our own using PayPal's HTTP request/response solution.  It was pretty easy to do.

Mike, Thanks. Was this website payments pro? And this was using the SOAP web services, correct? At the moment my requirements are very simple, I'm simply making single payment transactions for set amounts, I don't have a cart of products or anything like that.

There are a couple of CFC's on RiaForge. Both are v 0.1 but it may shorten your learning curve. http://cfpayflowpro.riaforge.org/ http://paypalcfc.riaforge.org/ hth G On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 10:46 AM, Robert Rawlins < robert.rawlins@thinkbluemedia.co.uk> wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

We use Payflow Pro and simple HTTP requests.  No SOAP or nuttin fancy. Other than setting some params for amount, credit card number, etc, the HTTP request looks like this: <cfhttp url="https://pilot-payflowpro.verisign.com:443" method="post" resolveurl="no" timeout="30">   <cfhttpparam type="header" name="X-VPS-REQUEST-ID" value="#requestId#">   <cfhttpparam type="header" name="X-VPS-CLIENT-TIMEOUT" value="10">   <cfhttpparam type="body" value=#paramList#> </cfhttp> Mike Mike, Thanks.

Mike, Thanks for this, someone mailed me off list with code very similar to this which looks as if it'll do the job I want. The real challenge right now is getting sandbox access in the UK, seems they're not properly setup for it yet and you have to jump through hoops, real pain in the arse.
