Simplify Integrations with Downloads and SDKs

Get a head start on your PayPal integrations with our software development kits (SDKs). They mask integration complexities with client libraries that let you program to "wrapper" library APIs. Find SDKs by language and product – and choose between SOAP and Name-Value Pair interfaces.

PayPal API: Name-Value Pair Interface

The PayPal Name-Value Pair Interface is recommended for most developers looking to integrate PayPal APIs, such as Website Payments Pro and Express Checkout:

PayPal API: SOAP Interface

PayPal recommends that you use the PayPal NVP interface to the PayPal API unless you are already familiar with using SOAP web services.
