Paypal request money - does it have API?

Question

There is a request money by email feature on paypal - (where you can put email of some person and he can send you money)

Does it have an API ? (So I want to request money by email from my application)

Answer 1

So the answer is - no such API

Answer 2

It looks like you can send invoices (request money) by email with the Invoicing Service API

Answer 3

You can create your own personal PayPal.Me/name link (it's open to both personal and business use) and it will be associated with your PayPal account.

Whenever you need to collect money from anyone, just send them your PayPal.Me link via email (or chat, SMS...).

Your payer clicks the link, enters the amount, and that's it. The money is in your PayPal account in seconds (you'll pay the standard PayPal fee for a business account).

To request a specific amount just add it to the end of your link. For example, use

PayPal.Me/name/25

to request 25 USD. You can request a specific currency by adding the currency code to the amount, e.g.

PayPal.Me/name/25EUR
