    Hi,
    I have created some paypal buttons using plugin’s “create new button” feature, just wondering if paypal IPN is required.
    I was trying to enable IPN in my paypal account, paypay would not let me to enable IPN because my webiste URL is not https://, will paypay button still be working? I have not used the button to pay.

    Thank you.

    Hi, is your PayPal account a Premier or Business Account? Only these types of PayPal accounts allow you to enable IPN. http still works with PayPal IPN setup, I have tested this as we speak. PayPal buttons will still work with http.

    Hi, we do have a business PayPal account, I was getting “please use a https://” error message when trying to use a non https:// URL.

    Thank you.

    Hi, I am not sure why this is happening to you but I tested this feature in my account by adding my website without https and it works for me. And I don’t receive any error messages like in your case. You might like to contact PayPal about this issue.
