php tutorial - PayPal IPN in PHP - php programming - learn php - php code - php script
PayPal Instant Notification (IPN) is a message service that allows you to integrate your PayPal payments with your website’s back-end operations and administrative function.
Using this merchant will automatically notify events related to PayPal transactions. IPN is very useful when you need to required functionality like automatically fulfilling orders and providing customer, with order status.
In our previous blog post focused on how we use PayPal adaptive payments in PHP for making parallel payments.
In this blog post, we are going demonstrate how we configure PayPal IPN script in PHP.

Note: PayPal offers sandbox account for development and testing purpose. Here we are using Sandbox for the demo, so if you would like to test our demo you can use your PayPal sandbox credentials.
Concept behind the script
There are three main steps for IPN functionality
- A web page that include a code for a call to PayPal to make a payment(index.php).
- An IPN script on your web server that call by PayPal to notify you that payment has been made(ipn.php).
- A webpage that show details the above have occurred and continues on to the next phase for another application(success.php).
Note: Step 1 and 3 is used by the merchant’s website and 2 will call by PayPal only.If you run that file, there is no output and IPN script will work on the web server only.
Enable IPN in your PayPal business Account
To enable IPN in your PayPal business account do steps which mention on PayPal official IPNSetup page.
Tutorial Scripts in detail
Below are the details of the code used in this tutorial with proper explanation.
Note: You can also refer the PHPProjectInstall.pdf file given in the download code folder.
MY-SQL Code
Create database ipn and create below table.
