Hi
I know all this is explained in the API doucmentation/developers' guide somewhere, but I do have the following question with which I would appreciate your help:
How would I create a button which would, when pressed, send x money to the seller and y money to me as a commission? I understand from reading some of he API documentation that all the money (x + y) would have to go to me first, and then I would send out the x payments to all the sellers en mass. So how would I encode that in the button? It would have to be something that told my PayPal account to pay seller x money automatically at some time in the month. Well, it doesn't have to be automatically, I could authorize all the payments. So how would this work? Or maybe it could send data to a Mass Payments file, which I could upload at the end of the month to release all the payments.
All I'd need really is just a record of the seller, something like what is described here.
I'd appreciate some explanation instead of just a link to some complicated documentation; but I thank you in advance for your reply.
