Questions tagged [paypal-adaptive-payments]

The Adaptive Payments API enables an entity to send money in many different scenarios, from simple to complex. For example, you might build a small send money application for a social networking site or a robust payroll system.

Adaptive Payments was deprecated by PayPal in December of 2017, and is no longer available for new integrations. Possible alternatives include PayPal Checkout for receiving payments, and PayPal Payouts (with approval) for sending payments. There are also some PayPal for Marketplace offerings that are only available to certain PayPal partners, contact PayPal for more information.
