Sell on social item quantity

Hello! I am setting up a sell on social item, but it doesn't have a place for me to input the quantity of the item. Is it possible to do that? Or do I need to make a new listing each time someone buys it? Also, if people want to purchase more than 1 in a transaction, how will that work?

Why hasn't this been fixed yet? I just had to refund a duplicate sale.

Good day @randi827 

 

Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.

 

It is the functionality of the "Sell on Social" product.

 

In order to meet your specific requirements, I recommend utilizing alternative PayPal buttons. These buttons will enable you to achieve your desired outcome.

 

We recommend merchants to integrate our latest PayPal Checkout (Smart button) product.

 

I would suggest to please use the  https://developer.paypal.com/integration-builder/ to generate button code and use on your website.

Merchant should first perform Create Order API( https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/orders/v2/#orders_create) call and then redirect the customer/buyer to "approve" URL.

 

Once the order is approved by the customer/buyer, merchant should perform Capture Order ( https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/orders/v2/#orders_capture) API call and customer/buyer should pass the valid funding source.

Note : PayPal provides multiple products and merchants can integrate them based on the requirement. 

 

Please follow below steps via PayPal Business account to explore other integrations.

 

Login PayPal.com >> click on "settings icon" >> go to "Account settings" >> Website payments >> PayPal buttons >> select button type >> fill the required details.

 

(Or)

If your still facing issues, please create an MTS ticket via - https://www.paypal-support.com/s/?language=en_US  with the detailed information and error details.
