Paypal pay standard

[QS Supplements]

The reason for using standard instead of express is the cost. Express is expensive, but is in the future plans.
anyways im i correct about the ipn notifying the back end that payment has gone through and to set it to processing?
thanks

Nonsense. Express Checkout and Website Payments Standard are exactly the same in terms of fees.

Yes, Standard is entirely dependent on back-end communication working reliably if you want to see orders in your store. Express doesn't have that limitation.

Actually you are correct thank you very much! I was looking at the compare payment solutions table on paypal website but i was looking at the wrong column. Thats great news, i am changing as we speak.
I would have never known, i looked at that table quite a few times.
Thanks for that DrByte
