Providers: Setup Paypal

Note: To take advantage of subscriptions and access the features outlined below you'll need to have a Verified Business account.

From your Paypal dashboard, go to the "My Business Info" page from the top menu

Top menu option

There you'll find your Merchant ID, among your other private info.

Business Info

Clicking on the last option of the side menu will reveal the option for the API access.

Selling tools

There you'll be presented with two different types of authentication. Onscribe uses the API Signature type:

API access

Clicking the link will reveal your private credentials. Although these credentials are not necessary for creating a subscription, they are essential for advanced actions for your users. For example, if not present in your provider details, your users will not be able to cancel the subscription through the Onscribe UI.

API Signature

If at any point you want to stop using Onscribe you can reset the API credentials from this same screen, by using the Remove option.
