Hi guys,
I have a PayPal business account. I need to add a 3rd party company to my account in order to give them access to the API. But they won't be able to see my PayPal balance and my information. They will be able to manage transactions. What is the best way to implement this? Should I add them as a user to my PayPal account? Or take their PayPal account and give access?
I was following this: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/admin/third-party/ It seems this is not so clear though.
Example: Company XYZ is there and I need to give them my PayPal business API access in order to receive funds from them via their platform. But I cannot allow them to see my account balance, etc.
Thank you in advance. 😊
