edukes Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 OK, This may seem to be a dumb question, but if there is PayPal support in OSC, why the need for a separate package? I know I must be missing the boat here, but could someone please expalin. ? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 There are two ways to use PayPal. I don't know much about it, but PayPal IPN seems to include more utilities to do things like track line items in sales (regular paypal is more for buying single items, like at an eBay auction). PayPal IPN also solves the problem of people who do not click back to your site after payment (where the order never gets entered as paid, so you never get notice of it). Hth, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edukes Posted August 18, 2003 Author Share Posted August 18, 2003 Thanks, Matt I think I understand. IPN is a better method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
