Paypal?

[Gutya-alt]

In my current project I have a thing where people can pay for certain features, is it possible to code a function that automatically upgrades the user when they donate?

I mean, does paypal allow this? And would it be safe?

If you search google, I'm sure you could find stuff that can know when someone pays through paypal and stuff...

It's called the Paypal API. You have to request it.

I can do it through IPN.

Yeah I was going to say I think this is what you're looking for: http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/xc l/rec/ipn-intro-outside

It looks pretty easy to integrate.

Paypal's IPN is very easy to implement but you have to be very careful to check that every incoming data is safe/correct. You don't want people screwing you.

Make sure to log EVERYTHING.
