Giving someone my Server Secret ID and my Client Secret ID

[Tokka16726]

I'm currently working with a freelancer for my website and we are a setting up our payment wall with paypal. If I give him my client ID and my server ID is there anything malicious he would be able to do with these, although I do trust him. You can never be too safe. Any answers would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Tokka16726,

Thank you for contacting PayPal community.

Our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused.

When ever your developer attempts to process a payment using your API credentials(Client ID & Secret key) funds/money will be credited to your(i.e merchant) account. Since your developer is using your API credentials.

Note - I request not to provide any refund permissions to your developer.

Thank you for understanding and patience.

Sincerely,

Chiranjeevi
