Paypal Here API #41

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

This is LOW priority item.  Only mentioning it because I defienitely will want 
to use this down the road, so I don't want to forget to add it.

BRIEFLY looking at the paypal api, it appears that you can use a soap class, 
which is good because we have that already.  Here is a link to some of their 
API information.

o_api_overview

Now I recommend not doing any work on this yet, as this is their standard API.  
I have a feeling they will be changing this relatively soon with the upcoming 
release of "Paypal here" their "Square" like device for the paypal app that 
lets users swipe credit cards and pay directly on your device.

So the idea is, you are in your app, and you are with a client who owes you 
money.  The paypal here features, allow you to swipe the users credit card 
right on your phone to collect payment.  My guess is, with the release of 
PayPal here (sometime in the next couple of months), they will update the API 
to integrate more with their actual application (this is all a guess on my 
part).

Here is some information on PayPal here:

I'll post again down the road once either the feature gets released...and/or I 
finish EVERY thing else on my app :)

Oh, and i found this function on a "donate" feature for apps, which I think we 
could all benefit from...
