Using Instant Payment Notification

Instant Payment Notification (IPN) is an HTTP POST notification that Amazon sends whenever a transaction is completed successfully or a transaction fails. You must host a script to handle the IPN notifications. You can specify the default URL for IPN in your Amazon Payments account settings as described in Enabling Instant Payment Notification. You can override the default value for Instant Payment Notification URL by passing your URL value in as an input parameter.
