I have scoured the Paypal website -- and Google -- and cannot figure out how to set up a digital purchase/download option on my website.
I have an existing business account with Paypal. Currently I only sell services on my website. All of that works fine.
I also would like to sell digital goods for less than $10 -- which I assume would be micropayments under Paypal. How do I set this up with Paypal? I'd like the user, on my website, to click a button to purchase that specific download. This goes to Paypal, and once the transaction is completed, they are given the download.
[Bonus question: Can the digital download be stored on Paypal's server?]
How can I do this?
Thanks!

Don't know how to set it up, but just a reminder: PayPal does not provide seller protection for digital items.
