I converted my Paypal account, got approval for Pro etc., and then followed the instructions on this page: http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/paypal-partner.htm



I set Edit Payment Preferences to Paypal Pro and saved it.



I then went back got a copy of the code for the Buy Now button, put it on my site and tried putting a transaction through (with a real card). And it seemed to go through fine - on the Paypal page I got the option of using a Paypal account or paying with a card - but ....



1. The transaction is happening as a Paypal Standard rather than a Paypal Pro (and shows as a Paypal Standard in the e-Junkie log)



2. My MailChimp account is not showing this new email address in my list. (I've got my common notification URL set as http://mysite.us10.list-manage1.com/subscribe/ejunkie-ipn?u=VariousLettersAndNumbers&id=VariousLettersAndNumbers - copied and pasted to ensure no mistakes). However, I know MailChimp is getting some info because Mailchimp is sending out the automated welcome email as described below. So I'm confused as to why I can't see the new email address in my MailChimp account - not even with a "confirmation pending" proviso.



3. This is not a problem with E-Junkie, but if anyone has any suggestions I'm very grateful. When customers make a purchase the very first email they get is the one MailChimp sends to people signing up for my newsletter i.e. "Please click the link to confirm your subscription". Is there any way to not have that email sent to customers who are making a purchase and to add them directly to the list instead (i.e. without that confirmation/double opt-in step)? Or do I need to create a new list for people who've made a purchase? I would really prefer they are on the same list as they would be interested in the newsletters and find them useful.



4. The customer is getting two separate emails from the e-junkie system; the first has a subject of "<Product Name> Purchase" and the second has a subject of "<Company Name> Purchase". The first has the download link and the second has the invoice number. Is there a way to combine these two emails?



Thanks for reading.

1) The Buy Now buttons we provide are direct links to the payment processor's website, in this case PayPal. For our integration with PayPal Pro you would need to use the Add to Cart/View Cart buttons we provide.



2) If the URL you included is the one MailChimp provided to you in the integration screen, then you should be good to go on our end. If as you believe MailChimp is getting information from us, the displaying of the data we send within their system will be on their end.



3) As far as we know here at E-junkie, MailChimp does not provide a way to eliminate the opt-in e-mail.



4) There is a lot you can do with the thank you e-mail(s) we send, here is a link to our help page on customizing the thank you e-mail:

Thanks for that awesome reply (and the speed of reply).



I'll try your suggestions and get back.



Re #4, I did see the adding invoice details to the thank you email , but there didn't seem to be a way to reduce the number of emails. No matter what I do there will be one email sent with the download link and another with the invoice. Is this correct?



(I'm trying to reduce the number of emails clients get but I'm struggling. At present for a simple order for one ebook they get two emails from you, one from Paypal and two from MailChimp.)

The steps are quickly explained on the page I included in my previous post, but here they are step-by-step:

1) Go to Seller Admin > View/Edit/Delete Products;

2) Select the product from the drop down menu and click Edit;

3) On the following page, on the right, add a checkmark to the box for Enable Templated Email;

4) Leave the Email Message field blank (with no email setup there is nothing to send);

5) Click Next until you can Submit the changes.



This will setup our system to send only a single email to your buyers.
