Paypal payment API webhook / IPN
-
Hey Guys,
Love the plugin, but I’ve recently started using a dual payment gateway with the PMPro Paypal express add-on.
I used to just have Stripe, and had a Zapier Zap which ‘listened’ out for the payment being made, then added the user’s email address to a list in Campaign Monitor.
I figured I could do the same for Paypal, and it does work for manual payments but not PMPro ones as the IPN URL is different when the payment goes through PmPro (obviously to feed back into the plugin that the payment was successful).
The use case is fairly simple… IF user buys level 6, send them a specific welcome email sequence for that level (welcome + upsell sequence of 3 or 4 emails) AND remove them from email offer sequence relating to level 6.
This is done by just adding a custom field via Zapier to their Campaign Monitor record to say ‘Bought’ and the autoresponders won’t send to them, then their email is added to a different list which handles the upsell stuff.
Is there any other way I can ‘grab’ the user’s information using a PMPro webhook ? Ideally I wouldn’t do it via the payment gateways as it’ll get messy with new levels, offers etc, just somehow would like the information of a new member sign up (would only really need their email address, name + level) to be pushed somewhere where Zapier can get it.
Hope that’s clear enough!
Liam
