Hi
What do i have to do to use paypal only for the credit card info validation ?
I mean i don't want my users to create paypals accounts.
The flow would be :
My Site : User Identified + Submit Basket => Paypal : enter credit card infos => Return to my site.
I am trying to implement this with Paypal Buisness account but its not working...i arrive on a "Paypal Basket page" which i don't want.
I need to arrive directly on the credit card info page.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanx for you answer...but ive already been through all those steps of creating dev accounts, bank accounts, sandbox...etc
But i still don't know if paypal is able to offer only the credit card interface or my clients will anyway have those boring paypal forms about where the want to be delivered...etc
I only need my clients to put their credit card info and get a message about if the payment succeded or not.
Do you think its possible ?
PS : Paypal should really reconsider their documentation. Ive never seen such a opaque documentation.

Hi Martin
I totally agree with you on the documentation.
But they offer the option to pay by credit card only. The first page in paypal is 'Enter Payment Information' where you have the basket on top, below that the 'Pay with PayPal' box and below that the 'Don't have a PayPal Account?' box, where you can pay without having an PayPal account. This is at least the first page I get on my sandbox, not sure whether it is the same for an non-sandbox account.
Unfortunately they promote paying with an account quite strongly, so a customer might be led to believe that he needs an account.
