Split paypal payment and send to two accounts

    I would like to accept a payment from the user and split the profit between the author and the admin.

    Like many deals sites, N amount is given to the admin and the rest goes to the poster.

    Is this possible with gravity forms?

    This is not a built in feature of the Gravity Forms PayPal Add-On.

    What you describe is adaptive payments, it's more advanced functionality and isn't supported by the standard API that the Gravity Forms PayPal Add-On integrates with.

    We are planning on developing a PayPal Pro Add-On and can look at the possibility of Adaptive Payments as part of that Add-On or a standalone Add-On at that type.

    If you need this functionality now, it's certainly possible but would require you to write your own customization to integrate with PayPal's Adapative Payments API. Any developer can create a Gravity Forms Add-On if they know enough PHP and understand WordPress development. Just like themes and plugins can change WordPress via hooks and filters, themes and plugins can also change/enhance/integrate with Gravity Forms via hooks and filters.

    Thanks, I just might dev that myself but I didn't want to reinvent the wheel if there was an easy or current way of doing that already.

    There is probably some workaround that I can use for now.
