PayPal Manager Checklist

bkeating edited this page Jul 20, 2011 · 3 revisions

There are some common gotcha's when working with Payflow Pro:

Allowed IP Addresses

That is, the public IP Address of any computer(s) that will be interacting with Payflow Pro. There are two types of "Allowed IP Addresses" within the PayPal Manager: Manager Access and Payflow Pro Access. The former is to allow access to the web-based PayPal Manager and the later is for actual payment functionality. As a developer You'll usually want to add yourself to both.

PayPal Manager IP Address List (allows you to access PayPal Manager): PayPal Manager IP Address List

Payflow Pro IP Address List (allows you to access Payflow Pro itself): Payflow Pro IP Address List

Additional Services

Some of the functionality in this Python Client relies on additional services, enabled on PayPal's side:

  1. If you want recurring billing functionality, then you'll need the Recurring Billing module.
  2. If you want Security Code (CVV, CVC2, CVV2, etc.) and/or Address Verification, you'll need the Fraud Protection module.

The home page within your PayPal Manager will show you what is enabled on your account:
