    Hi,

    I've never used PayPal before, but I'm making a site for someone and they want to accept credit cards.

    They have a business PayPal account.

    One the site I'm making for them, there is a link like below:
    How can I just have that link send people to the paypal payment page?

    Thanks will go to anyone who can help!

    Thanks :)

    Yeah I'm a bit lost with this.

    All I have right now is the client's PayPal email address.

    I was hoping to create something where the visitor can click on the link, and they will be taken to a page on the paypal site where they can either enter their credit card details, or their paypal email address.

    +ve repped you :)

    This is all within the UK, so I don't think it will be an issue.

    You have to login to your client's PayPal account (or have them do it) and go the Create Buy Now Button section. This will generate the button code that you need to paste into the website.
