- In fact, please just go to Paypal's developer page, login with your "Real" Paypal account:
- Click on the "Sandbox accounts" on the left hand side
- You will see Merchant + Buyer accounts have been created automatically
- You can then change password, profile, can also clone those accounts, or create more accounts (choose country, default currency, set amount for new accounts)
- You can check balance & transaction history of those testing accounts (the same as real accounts) by login with the accounts' credentials with:
- Official documents here: (just be patient and go step-by-step, by clicking their next topic's button on page, you can then understand the whole process!)
- Upgrade this library into more advanced Paypal button library (with features like recurring, add-to-cart, checkout-now etc.)
- Fork & pull-request are very welcomed!
