    Hi all,

    I have configured my website to accept Paypal payment only... but at the paypal website, it allows buyers to pay through credit cards. If they pay through credit cards at paypal website, would my system automatically reflect that the user had pay the services? If not how do i deal with this problems? thanks

    Paypal payments are made by the user to paypal with either their bank or credit card. Paypal then credits you with the $. As long as they pay, paypal will let the amember system know.

    Hi David, thanks for the reply. just to check with you,

    I get the error "paypal_r ERROR: IPN validation error: Paypal claims it is not-valid IPN transaction: [INVALID]‏" when i try to access to my url http://www.mysite.com/members/plugins/payment/paypal_r/ipn.php as i want to do testing before i go live. Is it normal?

    Thanks. As for the paypal portion, i have indicate that in the website payment preference to turn on the payment data transfer and there is a identity token. Where should i place the identity token in amember? and should i turn on the payment data transfer? thanks

    Yes, if you hit the IPN manually by going to the URL you will get an error.
