PayKit maintains TWO sets of information. One set of information is stored directly in PayPal’s PayFlow Pro. The PP_PayFlow.class.php contains methods that maintain data in PayPal’s PayFlow Pro.A similar set of information is stored in local tables assumed to be in a MySQL database. Note that PayKit DOES NOT store credit card numbers in these local tables. The PP_PayFlowProfile.class.php contains methods that maintain data in these local tables.
Use local tables to avoid network traffic when performing simple lookups and viewing historic data.
