It also includes an enterprise class PayPal payment integration which offers unlimited capabilities supporting many different payment types.

Components Included:

• PayPal Adaptive Payments enables you to receive, send money in many different scenarios, from simple to complex. As an Application Owner, You can be the receiver, receiving money directly from sender or be able to act as a facilitator facilitating payments between senders and receivers. Click here for more info on PayPal Adaptive Payments. mooSocial with integrated PayPal Adaptive is capable of these types of payments:
  • Simple payments enable a sender to send a single payment to a single receiver. For example, your website can use an Adaptive Payments payment flow to transfer money resulting from a sale from your customer’s PayPal account to your own account. This is the traditional kind of payment.
  • Parallel payments enable a sender to send a single payment to multiple receivers. For example, your application might be a shopping cart that enables a buyer to pay for items from several merchants with one payment. Your shopping cart allocates the payment to merchants that actually provided the items. PayPal then deducts money from the sender’s account and deposits it in the receivers’ accounts.
  • Chained payments enable a sender to send a single payment to a primary receiver. The primary receiver keeps part of the payment and pays secondary receivers the remainder. For example, your application could be an online travel agency that handles bookings for airfare, hotel reservations, and car rentals. The sender sees only you as the primary receiver. You allocate the payment for your commission and the actual cost of services provided by other receivers. PayPal then deducts money from the sender’s account and deposits it in both your account and the secondary receivers’ accounts.

Note: Chained payments also include delayed chained payments, in which payments to secondary receivers can be delayed for up to 90 days.

• Membership Subscription with full features. Very flexible, It is capable of one-time or recurring subscription packages for period of days, weeks, months, years or forever.
