PayPal Donation Button Dialog

Enter the PayPal Account.

Select this option if the PayPal account is a Sandbox account. A Sandbox account is used to test the process of payment before using the real account. You can check out this website https://developer.paypal.com.

Encrypt the payment details. In order to do this, you must have a PayPal account and you need to upload a public certificate to PayPal and get a certificate ID in return. Use the PayPal Encryption Key Manager to generate a public certificate to upload to PayPal. A form for submitting payment without encryption will look like this:

 

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">

    <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_donations" />

    <input type="hidden" name="business" value="paypal@yourwebsite.com" />

    <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Donation Organization" />

    <input type="hidden" name="amount" value="10" />

    <input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD" />

    <input type="hidden" name="cn" value="Add special instructions to the seller" />

    <input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="2" />

    <input id="wsbppbtn1" type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" name="submit" alt="" />

</form>

 

The encrypted form will look like this (Note: The real value will be much longer):

 

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">

     <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick" />

    <input type="hidden" name="encrypted" value="-----BEGIN PKCS7-----MIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHA6CAMIACAQAxggE6MIIBNgIBADCBnjCBmDELMAkGA1UEBhMCVVMxEzARBgNVBAgTCkNhbGlmb3JuaWExETAPBgNVBAcTCFNhbiBKb

    <input id="wsbppbtn1" type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" name="submit" alt="" />

</form>
