Paypal Payflow Pro - Bank Account

I have been trying to set up the 'Paypal Payflow Pro - Bank Account'

I see the requested fields:

  • Name
  • User
  • Partner
  • Vendor Password

I cannot find ANY documentation or training on this and how to grab it from the paypal account (We pay for the $35 one).

I am aware of this link: http://nationbuilder.com/how_much_does_nationbuilder_charge_for_donation_processing which does a very good job at explaining the first paypal steps, but is missing content for this area.

Official response from

Name = Merchant ID / Vendor ID given by PayFlow 

User = Must be the SAME as the merchant ID / vendor ID. Has to be the main user on the account and you cannot use any additionally created users as PayPal says was something you should do. It will not work with the NationBuilder system apparently so this should be the same user as the vendor ID. 

Partner = PayPal 

Password = the admin user password for the main user account (same as vendor ID password). 

All of these are the information obtained and used to login to the PayPal Manager at https://manager.paypal.com and NOT your PayPal information.
