Working on implementation of paypal’s recurring payments, I’ve got encountered some problems. I have followed paypal’s documentation from here:
PayPal Express Checkout: Recurring Payments Process Flow
It seems that everything works properly and I get ProfileID at the end (from result of CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile() query). Recurring profile is also being created.
The problem is there’s no IPN confirmation after running CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile() , but according to:
PayPal Express Checkout: PayPal Notifications – it should be.
From my experience this happens only when IPN (Instant Payment Notifications) are not enabled in your merchant account. You can enable IPN in Profile > Instant Payment Notification Preferences.
