How to come up with Paypal IPN url?

I want to integrate my project with Paypal and it requires a URL before enabling the IPN.

I know this URL for receiving notification posts from Paypal "if am not mistaken" but how do i get it? Do i have to implement a page in my website? if yes what is required from that page? Am really LOST here

Please any help would be appreciated

  • You need to create the IPN Listener on your website, since the IPN URL (Notify URL) is a URL you create on your website.
    Make sure that you have an SSL Certificate and the URL Listener is in an https:// format. As of June 2016 all IPN URL Listeners must be in an SSL Format.
    Here is the documentation on Instant Payment Notifications
    Here is the documentation on Creating an IPN Listener
    The documentation will be updated to state that as of June 2016 all listeners must be https://
