Paypal Webhook Event for card expiracy in a subscription

Question

I would be pleased to know what is the webhook event fired by Paypal when, during a subscription, a payment fails (not at the subscription creation but at its renewal).

Thank you.

Answer 1

BILLING.SUBSCRIPTION.PAYMENT.FAILED

The most straightforward solution is to simply base all logic on PAYMENT.SALE.COMPLETED. If you don't receive one on time for a subscription, then it has lapsed.

Adding a custom_id when a subscription is first created can be useful for reconciliation.
