Simple Payments

Simple payments enable a sender to send a single payment to a single receiver. This is

sometimes considered a traditional payment, such as a payment from a buyer to a seller.

Scenarios involving simple payments might include the following scenarios:

 Buyer makes a payment on a merchant’s website.

 Buyer makes a single payment for a cart of items from the same merchant.

 Person on a social networking site makes a payment for a purchase to the receiver. For

example, a sender sends money to pay for lunch at a restaurant.

In these cases, the sender sends a payment to a single receiver. The following example shows a

sender making a simple payment:

Parallel Payments

A parallel payment is a payment from a sender that is split directly among 2-6 receivers.

Technically, a parallel payment is a set of multiple payments made in a single Pay request.

Parallel payments are useful in cases when a buyer intends to make a single payment for items

from multiple sellers. Examples include the following scenarios:

 a single payment for multiple items from different merchants, such as a combination of

items in your inventory and items that partners drop ship for you.

 purchases of items related to an event, such as a trip that requires airfare, car rental, and a

hotel booking.

In these cases, the sender knows the receivers and the amount paid to each one. The following

example shows a sender paying 3 receivers in a single parallel payment:

1 2 ... 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ... 297 298
