Looking through the Docs, it says that:

SECONDARYONLY – Secondary receivers pay all fees (use only for chained payments with one secondary receiver) (emphasis mine)

Is this a typo in their docs? Can you only use this with a single secondary receiver?

Well it is not a typo. Using an Adaptive Payment Chained Payment, the secondary receiver can be at least 1 receiver and 1 primary receiver. As documented here, you can have at most one primary receiver and 1-9 secondary receivers.But if Secondary receiver nee to pay for the fees, the secondary receiver must have exactly 2 receivers only.

  • So its at *at least* one secondary receiver. Gotcha. Why does [the PayRequest](https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/api/adaptive-payments/Pay_API_Operation/) specify a maximum of 5 recipients? – nvahalik Dec 08 '15 at 23:24
  • I believe now is updated to 9 secondary receiver. Just tested it. ;) – Athrun Zara Dec 09 '15 at 02:07

    This answer is incorrect. `SECONDARYONLY` only works with exactly two receivers. – nvahalik Dec 10 '15 at 22:56
