Apologies if this question has already been asked. I've been hunting around for a few hours and haven't found an answer to my problem.
I am pretty new in working with the PayPal api's, so please forgive me if I am blatantly missing something here.
I am setting up a test environment to gain an understanding of how to build a web checkout using the Express Checkout library in PHP. I have set up both a buyer and a merchant seller account and have used some of the examples in the PHP SDK to help me build a basic HTML input page, and ultimately succeed in transferring the funds from the buyer account to the merchant account.
The problem that I am having is that when I have completed in sending the money, and I then log into the buyer's sandbox account, I can see that the money was sent to the merchant, however the transaction has been tagged as "Unclaimed". Looking at the details of the transaction, it has been sent to the correct merchant sandbox account. When I then log into the merchant account however, there is no sign of the transaction.
I am using the "Sale" payment type.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Make sure the email address is verified on the sellers account. If you still don't see it, can you provide the transaction id, the test sandbox buyer email address, and the test sandbox seller email address and I can take a look at it on my side.
