Subject: API Review Request

Dear PayPal Here App Preview team,

Please refer to this below information for the Login App Review:

  1. Client ID: [your client ID]
  2. The site is called ConnectPOS which is a web-based Point of Sale provider that syncs directly with our [platform] e-commerce website data, while also operating as an in-person point of sale system, as we are opening a brick and mortar store to add to our customer channels. We have long operated an e-commerce site at [your site], where we accept online PayPal payments and online credit card payments via [your payment gateways].  In essence, we need the API to allow our PayPal Here reader, our PayPal account [your PayPal Here account] and our ConnectPOS online account to communicate, so that we can process in-person credit card transactions taken in our upcoming brick and mortar store.
  3. See no. 2 above for this description.
  4. [Your attributes: Full name, Email, Address for example]
  5. All of these requested attributes are necessary to enable PayPal HERE and/or connect with PayPal to function when accepting in-person credit card transactions via our ConnectPOS online cash register.
  6. Return URL: http://retail.connectpos.com/
  7. Privacy Policy URL: [your privacy policy]
  8. Terms and Conditions URL: [your terms and conditions]

We kindly ask that you review our API as soon as possible.

Thank you.
