    I am trying to become a shareasale.com merchant for my new SEO website submitsitenow.com but I am having extreme trouble figuring out how to set up paypal to shareasale.com's specifications!

    here's what they told me to do:




    Tracking Code details for PayPal Website Payments Standard

    Unfortunately, integrating with PayPal Website Payments Standard is more difficult than most shopping carts. You will need to setup their Payment Data Transfer system before integrating with ShareASale. See PayPal's documentation and sample code here:

    https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/xcl/rec/pdt-intro-outside

    Unfortunately, ShareASale is unable to help in setting up the Payment Data Transfer system. If you require assistance you should contact PayPal directly.

    Once you have the Payment Data Transfer system running, you can use the following tracking codes in your Auto-Return script:

    ASPResponse.Write("<img src=""https://shareasale.com/sale.cfm?amount=" & mcGross & "&tracking=" & txToken & "&transtype=SALE&merchantID=XXXX"" width=""1"" height=""1"">") PHPecho ("<img src=\"https://shareasale.com/sale.cfm?amount=$amount&tracking=$tx_token&transtype=SALE&merchantID=XXXX\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\">");Where you replace XXXX with your ShareASale merchant ID number.



    Please help! :confused:

    I don't think so... I think shareasale.com wants PDT
