PaymentKey Property

Token used to identify a payment.

Syntax

adaptivepaymentdetailscontrol.PaymentKey[=string]

Default Value

""

Remarks

This token is returned by Paypal after authorizing a transaction using the AdaptivePay control. It is one of three ways to identify a transaction. A chained or parallel payment can be viewed as a set of individual payments. PaymentKey and TrackingId refer to the entire set, but TransactionId refers to one specific payment inside of the larger set. For a simple payment, the TransactionId refers to the same thing as the PaymentKey and TrackingId.

Specify the payment you're interested in using either the PaymentKey, TransactionId, or TrackingId. It is not recommended to specify more than one of these properties, unless they identify the same payment. If the properties do not belong to the same payment, the TransactionId is used; next, PayPal uses the PaymentKey. If more than one of these is specified, the TrackingId is never used.
