What if I want to use PayPal IPN, but I don’t want Shipwire to handle all my products?

If you use PayPal IPN, all your orders get sent to Shipwire. This means that unintended orders may get sent to Shipwire, with products that Shipwire may not recognize. To handle these situations, go into your Account Settings and edit your Shipping Preferences. Here you can set orders with unknown products to be rejected, held, or shipped with just the products that Shipwire recognizes.

PayPal Virtual Terminal

PayPal IPN appeas to work with PayPal Virtual Terminal. To enable this you must turn on IPN in your PayPal profile and then set up the appropriate URL. In your actual web checkout solutions you will want to include the NotifyURL value for the IPN script.
