    Nothing happens when you go to paypal, you get a blank page where the url says sandbox. The page is empty in every browser I try.

    When I enter to Dashboard->Sandbox->Accounts for the first time, there are two accounts created with suffix "-facilitator" and "-buyer". So, do I need to create a new account or can I use the two accounts automatically created?

    i actually upgraded my paypal account to business one and then i followed the steps very carefully but when i tried to use a sandbox account to pay this error occurs:
    “This transaction cannot be completed”
    Any suggestions?

    Hi..thank you for this tutorial. But it just made me curious though, like the money and everything we used in sandbox mode won't effect the real account right? So,no real payments were made and the balance thingy are all just doesn't exist? Just for confirmation. 🙂

    G'day Hogan. Thanks for yout guidance here.√√
    I followed all the steps and all going well unitil – At 2:03 you have an option above "Credit Cards" to select PayPal. While I do see 'Credit Cards', I don't have the Paypal option. Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome.
    Thanks in advance.

    One part I don't see is how you add the api signature or ipn with the sandbox account. I believe you have to have those in order for the connection to work. Just checking the use sandbox won't work without the rest of the process.

    I tried with odoo8 but doesn't work can you help me ?

    Ok thank you for this. But there's a problem: once the test user completed the order on Paypal, in the orders index in Woocommerce, the order is set in "Pending payment". Even in your tutorial this happens. This is bad because i want to know if the user have already done the payment. How can i achieve this? Thank you very much!
