Introduction
Payflow Link is the fast and easy way to add transaction processing to your Web site. With
Payflow Link, your customers are linked to Order forms on PayPal’s secure Web server where
transactions are processed in real time.
With Payflow Link’s simple “cut and paste” integration, you can be up and running with a
completely automated payment solution in a matter of hours. You can:
z Customize the look and feel of your secure Order forms to match the other pages on your
Web site.
z Automatically send email confirmation to customers.
z Post transaction data “behind-the-scenes” to your Web server.
z Take advantage of security features.
z Use PayPal Manager to generate Payflow Link report and to view transaction reports.
z Use the Buyer Authentication Service to protect your business from fraud.
IMPORTANT: PayPal recommends that you use PayPal Manager to verify each order and
the dollar amount of all Payflow Link transactions.
It is your responsibility to protect your passwords and other confidential data
and to implement security safeguards on your Web site and in your
organization, or to ensure that your hosting company or internal Web
operations team is implementing them on your behalf.
