Paypal PDT does not return transaction for subscription with free trial

Question

I'm working with Paypal PDT, everything is working very good, Paypal will return transaction details for any payment with charged amount; but does not return for subscription with free trial period

I need to secure the payment by referrer identify, but in Paypal's success page, seems it also does not pass referrer so my PHP code can not detect it.

I found referrer will be returned if you set "rm" (returned method) is POST (2). But this referrer only returned when user clicks return link manually, if Paypal auto redirects to return page, it does not return referrer

Please help me with right solutions, please don't suggest IPN.

Many thanks

pls try to use Paypal IPN, it's better, it gives you auto cancel, very good & strong to handle payment automatic totally — Phong Thai, Dec 19 '19 at 06:38
