    Go into your Paypal account and create a button and put the html code on your site.

      i cant use the html code because i am using LEADPAGES and like i said its a pre-made template i can just edit certain things like i said the buy now button has a link i can put in it, i want people to click that BUY NOW button and go straight to PAYPAL page where product is....is this more clear? i hope so..like i said im a "noob"

      Paypal has the answers

      Leadpages also has the answers.

      Why is it so difficult for people to ask for support from the products they are using. Every one has to run to the Warrior Forum to ask questions that would be answered by simply submitting a ticket to whatever products support.

        1. In the Account overview page click on Merchant Tools tab

        2. Look for Key Features in the middle-right area

        3. Click on Buy Now Buttons

        4. Click on Create Your Button Now

        5. Fill in the parameters and click Create Button at the bottom

        The resulting page should first display the regular HTML code for websites, but you should click on the Email tab- this is where the unique link is!

            But, did you submit a ticket to or contact paypal, or did you just search their site

            I don't think TylerDean is saying it is a problem, it is just inefficient.

            In your case, the experts would have been the support team at either PayPal or LeadPages, so therefore, they are the places to get the most accurate answer without your taking the chance of needing to try multiple "suspected" solutions.

    When you are logged into your paypal account you have opportunity to create link and create button. I think that you need design BUY NOW button by yourself and get link from your pyapal account. Also Make sure paypal allow you to have such kind of stuff. They always have tons of limitations for various users.

    I think there is some type of customization or you may even check. The file from your hosting account. Domain.com/cpanel and edit the html file from there. But not sure if leadpages is self hosted or not.
