Thoroughly confused after reading the PayPal threads

[ufodepot]

I have read many of the threads on PayPal and am very confused by it all. PLEASE HELP!

 

I am currently using AuthorizeNet and PayPal for those who have a PayPal account.

 

1. In OS Commerce there is a PayPal module (which I now use) and a PayPal IPN. Are either of those the PayPal Express or PayPal Standard module referred to in the threads? Or are those different modules that I have to add-on?

 

2. Does a customer have to have a PayPal account to pay, if I use PayPal's merchant services?

 

3. On PayPal's site they offer Website Payment Standards or Website Payments Pro. Will they both work with the same module in OS Commerce or does each need a different module?

 

I appreciate any clarification from anyone.

 

Thanks,

Hope

Thanks Nick.

 

1. Do you know with PayPal Standard is the customer automatically returned to my website after they pay?

 

2. So, in OS Commerce the PayPal IPN is the PayPal Standard - Is that correct?

 

Than ks Again,
