Yes there is

Its call paypal sandbox. Check oscmax documentation under payment module, there is a step by step how to install paypal including setup sandbox account.

Please remember that when creating sandbox, you will be asked to confirm your email. Ignore this because you will never get the confirmation email. Paypal said that the sandbox is still under testing and they have to confirm email one by one.

So wait for 3-4 days or 1 week before you can login with your email. But for now i'm not sure whether they have fix the problem. You can try that.

If you get the confirmation email then thats mean they have fix it.

To your success

Dear sir

Actually i have not verified my paypal (not developer.paypal) with a credit or debit card and also not uploaded the public,private key files and PayPal Public Cert to admin directory.

Is there another way to get verified without a bank account as i dont have any credit/debit card.

regards
ashok

First about the line 521 error, there is solution in this forum. Search for it.

Second about verification paypal, You have to ask Paypal about that. I don't have the answer. Sorry ashok

Here I got some idea Ashok,

Since creating US account is difficult, why not trying borrow someone credit card, friend or relatives. You pay them cash for using their credit. BTW the amount need to verified account is only $1.95USD. I think it is not expensive.

Then you tell them that you need the transaction number ( i think 3 digit number) in their credit card bill for PAypal transcsaction to verify the account.

Just an idea
