    Let me see if I have this correct. You can only have one website return url right? right. And only two paypal accounts right? right. ok so lets say that I am selling multiple products with their own websites how do I return my customers to the website of their purchase? So do I need to use a 3rd party product manager if so which one is the best?

    thanks in advance

    You can have all the return url's you want.
    You can only have one business account for accepting payment.
    Say you have different websites with products on them.
    You make a PP button for each one and you specify the return url in the button on the second page I think.
    When someone pays it goes to your business account. You can distinguish the different tramsactions with the item ID. The return url is just where PP sends customers after a successful payment. You could send them to google.com if you wanted to.
    Wouldn't make em very happy, but you could.
    EX - siteone.com/some-folder/thankyou-x465.htm
    - sitetwo.com/some-folder/thankyou-p92.htm
    You just need to create your download page or what ever it is and up load it to the correct site and folder.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Hey thanks for the info. So then in my paypal account profile my website return url needs to be left blank and then just create a paypal button with the return url for that product within the button itself correct? so then paypal just knows where to send my customer right as long as the button has the return url correct.
