Why do we need to use "Sandbox"? Why not just create a normal PayPal business account?

If this is a "test" account, does that mean it's not a real account?

This tutorial is for learning process, so that you will understand how online transaction is done. The transaction is not real.

When you register the Paypal SandBOx, in it you could create test account / demo account which is not a real account that you use to do demo online transaction safely.

Yes, you could create a Normal Paypal Business Account and use this tutorial to create Paypal Buy Now & Donate Button.

For programmer, Paypal Created the sandbox environment for us to test our coding for more complex application.

Hope I answered your question.
