Notification

Amazon FPS uses two means of notifying buyers and you of transaction success and failure: email and Instant Payment Notification (IPN).

[Note]Note

Amazon FPS can only use IPN if it has been configured. Otherwise, all notifications are email.

For example, when a purchase succeeds, an email is sent to the sender and an IPN is sent to you.

Amazon FPS sends email to senders that tells them either the transaction was fulfilled and their payment instrument was charged, or tells them that the attempt to settle the transaction failed and that they need to fund the payment instrument.
