Re: PayPal product details

The PayPal IPN module doesn't send line-item details.
If you want line-item details, the Express Checkout module will do that.
There are many threads discussing this matter if you want an explanation.

Re: PayPal product details

Would I be right in saying that you have to have a business bank account to be able to use paypal express checkout?

Re: PayPal product details

You need a paypal business account,

paypal express is just another paypal standard payment form

Re: PayPal product details

Reson for this, even if you are a registered a business, as a sole propriator you are not required to have seperate bank accounts
