NOTE: Free trials are currently not 100% supported by NATS, because Paypal does not return PDT information for free trials. Paypal does not return the information required to identify a member when performing a free trial. If you still want to offer the free trial, please alter the cascade_security template for your sites, keeping in mind that the person shown that template may or may not have been signed up to your site. If you would like free trials to work the same as normal sales for cascading, please ask Paypal to return Payment Data Transfer in the return url for free trials.

Billers Admin
To begin setting up PayPal as a biller in NATS, go to the Billers Admin. Scroll down to the "Biller" drop-down menu, select "PayPal Standard", and click "Add."
Note: If you don't see PayPal as a biller in NATS, put in a support ticket, as you may need an updated version of NATS.
When prompted, fill in the PayPal E-mail Address and PayPal Identity Token that you set up with PayPal under the "Account Info" section. If you wish to test PayPal with the sandbox, you can check the box to put PayPal in testing. If you were not provided with this information, please contact your biller to receive it.

Next, go to the Sites Admin, create or edit a tour, and scroll down to the section labeled "Join Options for this Tour." Click the "Edit Option Details for this tour" icon that corresponds to the join option you wish to use. In the "Biller Codes" section on the next page, locate the "PAYPAL Hosted Button ID" field and enter your Hosted Button ID.
Once you have completed these steps, save your join option details. PayPal will now be configured for basic use as a biller in NATS. Please run a real transaction through PayPal before you make it live in your cascade.
