Okay here's my problem. I am using paypal for one of my sites where I sell a digital download. After the customer buys paypal autoreturns them to the download page. Now I am launching another site, where I sell a tangible product that I will be shipping... I want to accept payments through paypal. The problem is, I dont want them to autoreturn to my other site! How do I get around this, short of opening a new bank account / paypal account?
One person or company can have only the 1 personal and 1 company account. They will only 'integrate' with 1 site. I have the same issue.
For the other site, you would need to add that email address to your paypal account (which you can have up to 8 email addresses associated to one account). Then log in using that particular email address. Once you do, in the Buy Now button creation, expand Step 3 (Customized Advanced Features). Then either uncheck 'Take customer to a specific page (URL) after successful checkout:' or check it and provide another URL to forward to, maybe a static page on your site which tells them that their order would be processed and item shipped after xx number of days. This way it allows you to redirect the Successful page to different pages for different products or company. Hope that helps.
eddy2009 steps will work fine. You can sell from multiple websites with a single P.Pal account. The other option is to use a free shopping cart which custom codes the redirects and P.Pal is just the c/card processor. Personally I like e-junkie as it has alot of extra features etc especially for digital d/loads.. ie the d'load link will expire after a period of time or number of d/loads, this helps you protect your products being shared online. Good luck
