Hello! I've been trying to donate to a charity through PayPal on Tiltify for the past while now but I keep getting this error:
"Payee does not have appropriate consent to allow the API caller to process this type of transaction on their behalf. Your current setup requires the 'payee' to provide a consent before this transaction can be processed successfully."
My friend has tried to donate as well but also gets the same error and we don't know why. We've been attempting the step-by-step guides for adding the API integration, but when we go to "SELLER TOOLS" there is no "API access" or anything "API" related that pops up, so those guides don't exactly work for us! Guide in reference: https://developer.paypal.com/api/nvp-soap/paypal-payments-standard/admin/:Cthird-party/ | not helpful as majority of these settings are not there for me!! 😕
Please we would appreciate some help, thank you!
