Hi there,
I am setting up a sales page for a piece of software. I need to know how I can deliver a unique license key to the customer from PayPal. Any ideas?

    Inventory Management for Digital Downloads
    If you use hosted buttons, you can chose to specify a list of download keys, which are keys that you define and are associated with the item being sold. These keys are useful when you want to sell digital goods with a key to enable access.

    To use this feature, you set the inventory for the button to include one or more download keys, up to a maximum of 1,000 keys. These keys are then available when you get the inventory for a button.

    For example, when a customer orders software or music, you could obtain an unused key from the list of download keys and email it to your customer so they can download the item. You are responsible for choosing the appropriate key from the list and how it is used. PayPal only stores the inventory of keys and does not track how a specific key is used, although PayPal does provide options for making this process simpler.

    When you specify the inventory for a button, you can specify the usage of download keys:

    Whether the keys you specify should be appended to the current list of keys or whether the list of keys should be replaced, which allows you to replenish the list of keys or replace the list entirely
    Whether the list of keys are to be reused or not
    If you do not reuse keys, PayPal will also notify you when the item is "sold out," meaning that there are no more keys available.
