Is the new payment a bug or is it normal workflow #16

Closed valentindragan closed 10 years ago

valentindragan commented 10 years ago

At the begining, I really thought that
if( isset( $_GET['PayerID'] ) ) { $paypal = create_example_purchase(); $response = $paypal->process_payment(); } else { $paypal = create_example_subscription(); $response = $paypal->start_subscription(); } is just being used for connection reasons but what it does is create another payment - and the confusion led me into charging my customer another amount than the customer agreed on. Basically, I can charge my customer anything I want - at least in Sandbox. Is Paypal really allowing the merchants to charge more then the user agreed on? Don't get me wrong - i just want to draw my security line in further coding.

Within reason. There is a "max amount" or similar parameter that draws the line on how much you can charge.
