<p><b>New page</b></p><div>''Acronym''. PayPal '''I'''nstant '''P'''ayment '''N'''otification. Technology from [[PayPal]] which notifies a host site immediately when an order is accepted or rejected. The flow of control is as follows:<br />
<br />
# User leaves client site and goes to PayPal.com to complete the transaction<br />
# User completes the transaction<br />
# PayPal's servers send a request '''directly''' to the PayPal IPN URL from PayPal's servers to the client's servers<br />
# Client's IPN script records the transaction as completed<br />

From the customer perspective, the PayPal IPN notification is "behind the scenes" and does not occur using the client's browser at all. It is a server-side connection from PayPal to the customer web site. As such customers must make considerations to [[Integrating_PayPal_Commerce_Tracking|preserve the customer identity]] to properly associate the sale with the original source of the sale.<br />
