How to test your website with Paypal Sandbox account

by Administrator 2. August 2009 03:40

Are you thinking of adding a Paypal buy now button in your website? Perhaps you already have a website ready to accept credit card payment using Paypal. It would be a good idea to test your website before you go public. There could be various reasons but I will point some of them bellow:

1. Make sure after user makes a payment they go to thank you page.

2. May be user is supposed to be able to download a file after he/she makes a payment.

3. What about storing transaction info in a database.

and so on.

You want to make sure all these work without doing a real transaction. In this blog I will show you how to do all the testing without making a real transaction using a Paypal sandbox account.

 

First of all you will need to create a Paypal sandbox accout from Paypal developer Center . Once you are at Paypal developer Center click on "Signup now" button.

It will take you to Signup page. Just fill in the info and click on Create button:

After this Paypal will send you an email to confirm.

Go ahead and click on confirm link. This will take you to Paypal developer center.

Just login using the sandbox account you just created.

Once you logged in Paypal developer center, we will create a seller account and a builder account. Click on "Create a preconfigured Seller and Buyer account" link. This will take you to "Create account page". Make sure you select "Seller" readio button for Account Type.

Now click on Create account. This will create a seller account. Let's create a buyer account as well. Click on " Create a preconfigured Seller and Buyer account " link again. This time choose "Buyer" as account type, then click on "Create account" button. Congratulations! Now you have a Paypal sandlbox seller and abuyer account. You are ready to test your website now. Go to you website where you have paypal button code. Replace the businessName field value with your email that you use to login to Paypal Developer Center. Save it. Now open up a Browser and Login to Paypal developer Center. Then open a second browser and go to your website. Click on Paypal button. This will take you to Paypal website. Enter your sandbox buyer email and password to proceed with the payment. Complete the payment. After the payment is complete, make sure your website is working as it should. That is it!

Google Checkout Just Got Even Better With the Addition of Cart2Buy

by Administrator 6. June 2009 23:09

Cart2Buy is the latest product launch from All-Affiliate, Inc out of Tallahassee, Florida. They are proud to announce that this product has completed all of the necessary requirements of Google to comply with their very strict API standards for full and complete integration with the Google Checkout Process.

 

Google Checkout is one of the most common checkout services available and one of the most viable alternatives to the “other” guys who often lock up and freeze your online accounts for no apparent reason … often resulting in days, weeks or even months of continual financial losses while you are forced to prove that you did absolutely nothing wrong. This very unpleasant occurrence can be easily avoided by using a checkout cart that utilizes the powerful Level 2 Google Checkout Integration.

 

To date there are many companies that have integrated their checkout carts with Google but All-Affiliate.com has taken it all the way up to Google Level 2 Integration and has come up with an entire e-commerce solution for you. At the time of this press release, less than fifty (50) companies are listed on Google’s very own pages. There with those highly respected names, you will now be able to see Cart2Buy listed among those very few companies that have successfully provided you with an all-around proven AND GOOGLE APPROVED solution for your Online Marketing Needs, affiliate needs and OS Commerce Solutions.

 

Whether you are working in the area of E-Commerce or OS-Commerce, you are going to need a safe and reliable checkout system. The reason that there are so few that are Google Approved is because they have very exacting standards to maintain their level of excellence, safety and security for your customer’s online shopping experience. Cart2By is now among those very few companies who are actually certified by Google and have proven themselves capable of maintaining the very same level of safety and security that has become synonymous with the Google Name Brand.

 

What Makes Cart2Buy so much better?

 

While many affiliate programs and other OS Commerce solutions have successfully integrated Google Checkout Solutions into their affiliate management software, according to Google’s very own pages, Cart2Buy is one of less than fifty that has actually extended this process and achieved the coveted status of being fully compliant with Level 2 Integration of their software. If you are looking for an all-around E-Commerce Solution, OS Commerce Solution or Affiliate Management System that works with maximized results with minimal risks, you have found exactly what you are looking for.

 

What Does Level 2 Google Integration Involve for Shopping Cart Solutions?

 

The initial process to develop Cart2Buy into a Google Accepted and fully Integrated shopping cart solution began with a 61 step process and evaluation of the software. Each and every aspect of the OS Commerce solution was then tested with Google Checkout by the folks at Google. Google does not let just any software in and they certainly do not put their name on many products at all but Cart2Buy worked diligently with testers and with the people at Google to bring you the ultimate in E Commerce, Affiliate and Shopping Cart solutions.

 

Google Has Put Their Name on Cart2Buy so You Know that You Can Trust Cart2Buy on Your Site

 

People trust Google to handle many tasks for a reason and if Google says that Cart2Buy is a viable option and has dared to put their name on this product, you can rest assured that you will be able to trust them too. So how can it get any better than that?

 

Affordability

 

Cart2Buy has done all of the work and taken all of the risk out of it for you … and what’s more is that they have still kept the product at an extremely reasonable price so that it is available for anyone looking for an all-around unbeatable E-Commerce solution.
