Please follow the steps below
- Get a Paypal business account after signing up with paypal
- Login to your paypal account
- click on profile tab
- click on Instant Payment Notification Preferences under Selling Preferences
- Enter the Instant Payment Notification (IPN) URL . ie, www.yourwebsitedomain.com/ipn.cfm. Dont worry about IPN.CFM now , we can work out that script later. So now you gave the Instant Payment Notification (IPN) URL and turn ON the Instant Payment Notification (IPN). Back to profile summary
