Make sure your PayPal account is setup to accept online Web Pro payments and not just use the Virtual Terminal.

I am not sure what you mean. I am paying for Web Pro which includes the Virtual Terminal. Is there something in PayPal that I need to say "Yes - I want to accept Web Pro Payments"?

In PayPal/Profile/API Access, there is an option for Grants API Permission for 3rd party access. Do I need to set that up? If yes, what would be the API account username?

You need to talk to your PayPal sales rep and confirm whether or not you have been vetted for Website Payments Pro, in addition to the VT service you've been using.

No.

You have to subscribe to the Website Payments Pro service from PayPal if you want to use it on your website.
Otherwise you can use Express Checkout or Website Payments Standard with your regular business account.
