In order to use the PayPal Commerce Platform gateway on your site, you will need to register an app at the PayPal Developer Portal and get your API credentials.

Once you get the credentials, please send them to support@surfnewmedia.com so we can finish the configurations. Please see below for getting your PayPal credentials.
