I've referred lot of things for payment processing system to android app. It proviedes Paypal's SDK as best to do. But, i've little confusion in there for below image -
What's the difference between these two - Mobile Express Checkout Library & Mobile Payment Libraries. And, which one will i choose to do the payment processing for android app. Anyone please, explain with brief explanation please. Thanks in Advance.
I hope this will help you :
Mobile Payment Libraries (MPL): Add in-app payments by just adding a
Pay with PayPal button to your iOS or Android app. PayPal’s library
will display an in-app UI to ask the buyer to log in and complete the
payment. It's the quickest way to add payments into your app, and you
can do it without having back-end services running.
Mobile Express Checkout Library (MECL): If you want the PayPal
checkout flow to be in a browser or webview, you can use our Mobile
Express Checkout Library. This is useful if you already have a express
checkout integration completed for your website or if app store
policies require you to complete your checkout flow in a browser. This
library will help you integrate the mobile web flow into your app.
I got this information from here.

I am developing an demo application to integrate Amazon Pay In android application. Is there any proper documentation for the same. Thanks in advance
For using Amazon Pay in a mobile app, I'd recommend you to create a (or re-use an existing) web-based Amazon Pay integration as described in the official documentation. For most scenarios the "One-time payments" guide will be the integration guide you want to refer to. You would simply call this web page then from the Android app (or iOS app, or whatever) and send the buyer back to the app after the payment has been completed.
As the integration is independent from Android in this scenario, you can of course use any programming language you prefer. Using PHP, Java, C# (or other .NET languages), Ruby or Python is recommended though as there are officially supported SDKs available for those.
For other "in-app" integration options, you should contact Amazon Pay directly.
Have done some exploration on available payment gateway APIs for Android and came across 3 whose names cropped up quite a lot:
1) PayPal
2) Stripe
3) Braintree
But my requirement is Billdesk Payment Gateway integration in an Android app. After doing quite a lot of googling and reading blogs, I still have no evidence of Billdesk being used in mobile apps. In fact, even for desktops could find only a couple of links describing how Billdesk payment gateway can be integrated with desktop apps.
So my questions are, can Billdesk payment gateway be integrated with Android apps? If so, can anyone please provide the appropriate info, links?
And if so does Billdesk have a mobile optimized payment gateway or Android compatible API? And is the web services same in that case(Payment request format and response format)?
Sorry for so many questions, but am unable to find a definitive answer so far.
The solution i have used so far is through a web view in android and similar web window components for desktop applications in java swing and vb.net. Actually we just call the web part on the device or desktop application which works same as the web api.
Does the new native PayPal sdk for android have the ability to pull shipping information to give to the merchant? The sample code provided on the PayPal site will process cards etc, but it appears to me that the api only provides payment confirmation. What good is this api if you don't know where to send your product?
Anyone know how to do this?
Jeff from PayPal at your service. The PayPal Android SDK does not support shipping addresses just yet. Your feedback is heard, and we plan to add the feature as soon we can!
I am trying to download this package to see how to integrate paypal with my app
however, every time i click it, it says the requested site cannot be found, even though i was once able to download this package, but unfortunately deleted it
https://www.x.com/sites/default/files/PayPal_MECL_1.0_Android-Developer-Package_0.zip
how to fix this? i'd like to download this package
I just clicked the link you provided and the PayPal MECL for the Android was downloaded. Are you still having issues with it?
Code samples from X.com are going to all be deleted soon. They're moving to Developer.PayPal.com and github - http://paypal.github.io/
I don't believe the MECL stuff is going to be added - sorry.
Lena, this FAQ may be helpful to you:
Where is the Mobile Express Checkout Library (MECL)?
The Mobile Express Checkout Library for iOS and Android have been
discontinued. We recommend using the new PayPal iOS SDK and Paypal
Android SDK instead. For developers with existing Express Checkout
integrations or who want additional features such as authorization and
capture, we recommend Mobile Express Checkout.

I've been looking for ways to implement Authorization & Capture in android using paypal sdk. I only found it doable using the website payment standard. Is it doable in the mobile platform as well by using the paypal sdk?
I was able to implement authorization and capture using the Mobile Express Checkout Library of paypal found here.
