CSCart helpdesk reached out regarding the PayPal Commerce Platform partnership. My concern here is the use of CSCart BN code, as opposed to our own BN code. The CSCart documentation says to use their BN code which is a little bit odd, though. If you’re going to be using their BN code, then you should be using their App credentials as well. If you’re going to use your own app credentials, then you should use your own BN code so that you get the credit from PayPal. They pay rev. share based on that volume, and if you use their BN code, they would get all that rev. share.
Does anyone have experience with setting up PayPal with their BN code? If so , please clarify.
Here was the CSCart helpdesk email from this week:
"Thank you for your patience. We apologize for the delay in answering.
Unfortunately, PayPal is not yet ready to provide the credentials required to use the new payment solution massively. We are currently in the process of communication with PayPal regarding the provision of credentials required to use the PayPal Commerce solution. If you are going to use this payment method in your Marketplace, please provide us the following information:
1. PayPal business account email
2. Merchant account ID
3. Platform volume
4. Country
5. Link to website
6. Email address to send you a copy of the message.
We will send this information to PayPal.
PayPal Commerce Platform is the only option if you want the money from each order to be automatically distributed between the marketplace owner and the involved vendors. "
