Hi, I am integrating paypal service in my application using Activemerchant.

Now I want to know how to use ActiveMerchant to make payment to Bank or Credit card ?

for example:
I am seller and I want to pay some amount to somebody. I want to pay such amount which will be credited in somebody's bank account or credit card directly ?

Please reply me as early as possible.
And also suggest me any configuration which i should make in test accounts, if any.


Thank  you.

I actually was just looking into this last week. What I found was that I could only credit up to an amount equal to what was already billed (in essence cancelling a charge), from the link above:

"credit() allows you to return money to a card that was previously billed."

If you are looking to pay someone (vs reimburse a payment you captured), paypal has a method to send a payment and although I have not implemented this it looks like you should be able to, see the following links:
