Can PayPal send a payment to other PayPal Accounts?

Question

I am using Ionic2, and need to integrate PayPal into my app.

My app needs to be able to send and receive payments to/from other PayPal accounts.

Is there a way for a Mobile App (Facilitator) to allow a Payer to make a payment to a Payee?

I have looked at the PayPal API's, and I can find how to facilitate a Payer to make a payment a Payee, if the Payee is the Facilitator. As then it can register the Payees PayPal client Id. But in my case, the Payee does not supply their PayPal client Id (Facilitator & Payee are separate entities). i.e. The Payee is another PayPal Account.

Thanks

You can use PayPal payout api for transferring PayPal amount from one account to another. Read the documentation in this link. https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/payments.payouts-batch
