I will integrate in our previous tutorial of core PHP shopping cart project .So if you have not setup it ,do visit this tutorial and follow all steps or if you have your own project ,itβs paypal payment gateway integration in php source code download.
Step 1 : Create a e-commerce project Shop Product Page

<form action="paypal.php?sandbox=1" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="process" />
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_cart" />
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="INR" />
<input type="hidden" name="invoice" value="<?php echo date("His").rand(1234, 9632); ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="material_id" value="<?php echo $model; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name="material_name" value="<?php echo $material_name; ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="material_quantity" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="material_amount" value="<?php echo $total; ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="donor_fname" value="<?php echo $cartcheckres['name']; ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="donor_email" value="<?php echo $cartcheckres['email']; ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="donor_address" value="<?php echo $cartcheckres['address']; ?>" />
