Hi,
I'd like to make a "shop", where others can submit their games and _their_
paypal address. Now if you pay game "X" for paypal account "Y" - is there a
way to get the transaction status, so _my_ store can provide the download
link?
Like: An app store with direct purchase.
Thank you,

What does this have to do with PHP?
Why don't you ask Paypal?

Yes. Please see the developer docs on Paypal, and the support forums on
Paypal. Paypal has all of that. Here doesn't.

Specifically, see the documentation for the IPN Listener script. Such a
script listens for information from PayPal, then executes whatever code
you add to it. In the code you add you can, for example, direct them to
a page with the download link.
Look for $txn_type = 'subscr_payment' and $payment_status='completed' as
a place to add your code in the listener script. There are a wide number
of $payment_status values so look through it carefully for the
scenario(s) that fit(s) your circumstances.
