We received a notification from PayPal that ipn verification needs to be updated to https. https://www.paypal.com/au/webapps/mpp/ipn-verification-https

But we only use PayPal buttons generated from the PayPal website with some added drop down menus. Does this apply to us?

If you're using the IPN service, then you will need to update it to HTTPS. If not, there is no need for an update.

  • Are you using the PayPal buttons together with the IPN service? if no, then you got nothing to worry about. You may refer to https://www.paypal-notice.com/en/ for more info – GJ51 Jan 02 '18 at 06:49
  • I don't know what IPN service is. All i do is copy the HTML code from the generated button from PayPal website and insert on our website – larry909 Jan 02 '18 at 08:27
  • Here is the documentation link for PayPal's Instant Payment Notification (IPN) - https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/products/instant-payment-notification/ – GJ51 Jan 02 '18 at 08:51
  • If you're copy pasting the PayPal button code, then there is nothing to worry about. – GJ51 Jan 02 '18 at 08:54
  • I'm also adding a few text form fields that get passed onto PayPal. Not credit card numbers or sensitive information – larry909 Jan 02 '18 at 09:08
  • It should not be a problem. – GJ51 Jan 03 '18 at 05:31
