PayPal integration

Introduction

This section concerns the payment method PayPal.

It involves redirecting the cardholder to PayPal to finalize its transaction.

info

Upon receipt of EXECCODE = 0002 in the synchronous response, you must redirect the cardholder to the PayPal form by displaying the content of the REDIRECTHTML parameter. (Base64 encoded)

warning

The redirection to PayPal cannot be done inside an iframe.

After validating the payment on PayPal, the cardholder is redirected to the URL specified in the Dalenys Dashboard.

The result of the transaction will also be transmitted by HTTP notification. (See the specifics of the notification)

Compatible operations and options

Authorization specifics

On a PayPal account, the validity period of an authorization to be captured is 3 days.

Server to server integration
