php - automatically create buy now button paypal?

Question

I want to automatically create a paypal buy now button.

What is the easiest way to do it?

Answer 1

I also found out that you can pass the info in a url like this:

https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=herschelgomez@xyzzyu.com&item_name=Hot Sauce-12+oz.+Bottle&item_number=12345&amount=5%2e95&currency_code=USD

and you could do something like this:

<a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=herschelgomez@xyzzyu.com&item_name=Hot Sauce-12+oz.+Bottle&item_number=12345&amount=5%2e95&currency_code=USD">

</a>
