What Is Express Checkout?
Express Checkout is PayPal’s method of payment. It offers your buyers an easy, convenient
checkout experience by letting them use shipping and billing information stored securely at
PayPal to check out, so they don’t have to re-enter it on your website.
Like other Payflow transactions, Express Checkout transaction requests send data as name-
value pair parameters, and include this basic set of required parameters:
z Connection parameters
z User parameters
z Transaction type (TRXTYPE) such as Sale (TRXTYPE=S), Authorization (TRXTYPE=A), or
Order (TRXTYPE=0)
z Tender type, which is always PayPal (TENDER=P)
