PayPal Payflow Pro

PayPal Payflow Pro is a payment gateway that lets merchants accept and process credit and debit card payments through their own checkout, with the card data flowing through PayPal’s infrastructure rather than a PayPal-hosted page. It is a long-established gateway available to merchants in North America and Australasia, and is a common choice for businesses that already run their PayPal Manager account and want direct card processing under their own merchant account. The connection to Payflow Pro uses your PayPal Manager API credentials.
