Payment Step 3, confirm order, just takes me back to step 2!

IT LIVES!

I'm reporting my experience in the hope it may help others.

PayPal approved a parent account of mine for Website Payments Pro, and told me to create child accounts for each of my web stores, so I have [email protected] to receive payments from madwomanofeasthampton.com, shopkeeper@websiteNumber2 to receive payments from websiteNumber2.com, and so on. They promised that Website Payments Pro would apply to these accounts because the parent account is approved.

BIG LIE.

Today I rushed home from work to get them while they are still open. They sent me around and around, until finally I did what I hate to do, I cussed them out. I've been working with them for THREE MONTHS! Then they told me that each PayPal account can receive payments from ONLY ONE DOMAIN.

Finally they gave me to this wonderful Indian genius lady, who said that's not true at all. She got madwomanofeasthampton.com up and running, and paying into the PARENT account, which is [email protected]. She said that the cultureclick.biz account can receve payments from any number of domains! So now, once I do the SSL integration on the websiteNumber2.com, she will set it up so THAT website ALSO pays to [email protected].

She said that one PayPal account can receive payments from any number of domains.

Sheesh.

Correct.

Correct.

Well thank all the internet gods! You would think PayPal would have their stupid information straight.

Now here's a question:

Since I can not have more than one Website Payments Pro account, when someone buys something from madwomanofeasthampton.com, their bank card statement will say "CultureClick". And when someone buys something from circle-of-angels.com, their bank card statement will say "CultureClick". Is there a way around it?

And what should I do with the now inactive and useless accounts, [email protected] and [email protected]? Save them in the hopes that PayPal will one day make them Website Payments Pro accounts?

I'm just astonished at PayPal. I've had another account, for my http://www.rootswithoutend.org/emporium.php page, the Vodou Emporium. All my initiates in Vodou have webpages, like this one: http://www.rootswithoutend.org/solen/solindex.html , and http://www.rootswithoutend.org/empor...o_andreli.html . (I don't think anyone wants to buy Vodou ceremonies this morning, so I guess it's okay to post the URL's so you can see - it's just straight web HTML and PayPal payments standard, you make a button and put it in your HTML code.) Those folks are my initiate sons and daughters, and I put up these pages so they could make a little money, since they are suffering in Haiti. The PayPal account that goes with those pages has been around for about fifteen years, and never had a problem. But somehow they don't think I deserve more than one PayPal Website Payments Pro account, because "if you or your business died (!) and there were outstanding orders, PayPal would be liable."

Whatever.

Got to fix the banners and privacy statement and such, now.

Thank you everyone!

Yours respectfully as ever,

Since v1.5.0 you can set your store name in your Payments Pro settings inside your ZC admin. Set it appropriately in each of your stores.

And for EC, in your ZC admin you can also set a "Page Style" (if you've set up any page styles from inside your actual PayPal account) to make your PayPal EC page have a particular look to it (such as different logo or header graphic with company name on it, etc).

Oh, thank you!

The store names are already set, so that shouldn't be a problem then. And I have all these lovely little logos, I've gotten so I can whip them up pretty quickly now, however many pixels wide and high, LOL.

I managed to put some banners into rotation on madwomanofeasthampton.com, just two, but... they work.

I wish to goshamighty that someone would buy something.

Yours as ever,
