Thread: Trying to setup paypal

So I want to allow people to send me money through paypal. Paypal's standard payment system says it lets people click the button I set up, go to pay pal to make the payment, and then it'll send the user to my website right afterward.

The only problem with this is that paypal won't let me specify which page I want the user to land on after they've sent me their money.

It only gives me code to input a button on my webpage.

Is it possible to make this happen with paypal's standard payment service or do I have to sign up for the Pro version for $30 a month?

Been a while since I've done it, but I swear when logged into an account there was an input field in the standard form you fill out to get the button with a name of like "Success url" or something of that sort.

I had to upgrade to a business account.

In the advanced options it allows me to add a destination URL after upgrading.

Thanks!
