After a PayPal subscription is created for a user, does subscr_signup get sent before or after confirming the payment?
I am using django-paypal, which does not have built-in functionality to handle the subscr_payment IPN message.
This lead me to wonder whether or not I can use subscr_signup as an indicator that the subscription was successful.
Many thanks
Typically subscr_signup is sent after subscr_payment(3 sec apart), but the sequence is not guaranteed. PayPal recommendation is to rely on subscr_signup.
