How long does it take for a Paypal app like this to get approved? Do you need a merchant acccount to act as an intermediary between the buyer and seller?
You mentioned that you are using Paypal Website Payments Standard "until you get your Paypal app approved". After it's approved, what happens? Will you have to pay a monthly fee (Website Payments Pro) to keep your Paypal app going?
- shabda 16y agoNo merchant account needed. Paypal needs to enable App for adaptive payments. All business Paypal accounts have API access, which is the only thing needed for Website Standard. Until we have the Adaptive app enabled, we cannot take a cut. (To enable payments to two accounts, we would need the buyer to authorize twice, which makes a much less seamless exp.) With the adaptive payments API, user just needs to pay to one account, and the developer can split it between two Paypal accounts. After our app is approved we will move to Adaptive payments.
