How to send money to paypal using php

I have stored the customers paypal email address in database and I want to send them money using that email address. I am using PHP.

Anyone please suggest how to do that.

I was looking for the same issue, here's what is working for me. Tested in 'sandbox' mode and using NVP (instead of SOAP). Your server must support CURL, in order to verify it use:

<?php
echo 'curl extension/module loaded/installed: ';
echo ( !extension_loaded('curl')) ? 'no' : 'yes';
echo "<br />\n";
phpinfo(INFO_MODULES); // just to be sure
?>

If is not loaded or installed ask to your hostmaster or get it here, otherwise go ahead:

// sample code: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/library_code

// eMail subject to receivers
$vEmailSubject = 'PayPal payment';

/** MassPay NVP example.
 *
 *  Pay one or more recipients. 
*/

// For testing environment: use 'sandbox' option. Otherwise, use 'live'.
// Go to www.x.com (PayPal Integration center) for more information.
$environment = 'sandbox'; // or 'beta-sandbox' or 'live'.

Good luck!

What you're looking for is DoMassPay from the PayPal official code samples, not easy to guess that name :P
