ActiveMerchant是否支持PayPal Digital Goods进行Express Checkout交易？

Question

I know ActiveMerchant supports the standard Express Checkout API, but the Digital Goods integration document describes several EC features not supported by the Digital Goods Express Checkout API. It appears at least one of those features (Authorization & Capture) is used by ActiveMerchant. Is it possible to use ActiveMerchant for PayPal micropayments?

Answer 1

You should be able to, yes. The only difference between Express Checkout and Express Checkout for Digital Goods is the PAYMENTREQUEST_0_ITEMCATEGORY0=Digital switch, which identifies it as a Digital Goods transaction. Of course, you'll need to handle the JS include to initiate the flow as well, but other than that it's pretty much the same beast.
