As I've been integrating with PayPal, I've noticed that their sandbox UI is very different from their real UI.

When I set my button to post to sandbox.paypal.com, I get something like this: alt text

But when I post to paypal.com from a browser that has never visited PayPal before, I get this: alt text

Is there any way to setup the sandbox so its interface will be closer to the "real" PayPal's interface?

I've not seen it, but perhaps that's a New UI? The quote below is about all I've been able to find out about it though.

The Adaptive Payments consumer experience will be upgraded to the new PayPal payment flow design being rolled out across all PayPal products. The new UI will show the merchant's business name instead of their email address and will have a split slider showing the payment breakdown on the left and the login/approval on the right.

David seems to be right — they are rolling out a new UI on the real site, but I guess the sandbox hasn't gotten it yet.

Also, clearing all my *sandbox.paypal.com cookies gives me a "pay with credit card" screen instead of the "log into PayPal" screen.

hello,

any update on this issue?

why this question has been marked as "Answered"? :s

I am still facing the new paypal sandbox interface because of which I am unable to make transactions. because the new interface does not return the post parameters after transaction.

any immediate help would be appreciated.

It's been marked “answered” because @David answered my question. If your problem is that you are seeing the *new* sandbox, though, that seems like a separate problem. Post a new question?
David Wolever

There is problem with new paypal interface, also mentioned in developer community forum on their website. many of the users are having problem since 1 month, and paypal is still working on it to resolve the issue.
