    Are you looking for the full express checkout flow? or the simple HTML based button? HTML based button should be simple... full express checkout will require some work... ping me with more details if you need help.

    short answer is :: by embedding html form tag in FBML app.... first add FBML app to your facebook account; it will show up as a tab... in that tab put all your pitch page along with the paypal's buy button (which essentially is a form). hope this helps... unfortunately i don't have a demo to show all the details... but if you are very new to FBML, etc... better read that first and then all the stuff would start making sense...

    Thanks!

    I think that is the simple one - you get the code for the paypal button and add that on your facebook page - but before you can do that you need to have the FBML enabled on your facebook account.

    maanjoy, please do not clutter the posts with promotional material. The question purely technical :: having to add a PayPal button for payments in facebook.. It has nothing to do about asking for ways to promote business.

    Please refrain from posting promotional content at places where it doesn't make sense.

    Thanks!

    Well, if you're trying to embed a button on your wall, it's not possible.
    If you have a Facebook page, simply use an iFrame app on your page and use the normal HTML code for embedding an image.
