When does Paypal send subscr_eot? - paypal-subscriptions

can we rely solely on subscr_eot to activate/deactivate an account?
Assume we have the following scenario:
On 9/16, a customer pays using Paypal for a monthly recurring
service.
With 24 hours, Paypal sends "subscr_signup" and
followed by "subscr_payment". At this time, the application will
grant the user access.
??
The question, will Paypal send an EOT before attempting to collect the payment on 10/16 or would it send it before?
Thanks,

subscr_eot means that the subscription has expired, either because the subscriber cancelled it or it has a fixed term (implying a fixed number of payments) and it has now expired with no further payments being due. It is sent at the end of the term, instead of any payment that would otherwise have been due on that date.

If I have a transaction_id of an authorization request in Magento, can I use same that transaction id and token to capture funds in Salesforce?

So I am using Salesforce and Magento for order management in the backend. My customers are placing orders on my marketplace in Magento and then Magento sends the orders to salesforce for reporting. I would like process the orders in salesforce; however, I don't want to be flagged to xss attack or middle man attack by Authorize.net. I want to know if I can use the transaction token and ID that I received for authorizing amount on the customer's card in Magento to capture the funds in Salesforce?
Magento makes api call to authorize.net to auth amount on customer's credit card.
Then Salesforce uses that same authorization token in capture funds.
Yes, you can. As long as you have the proper login ID, transaction ID, and CIM profiled IDs the payment can originate from any system you control.

Check if payment received paypal?

I am making a website where people will buy things. What I am wondering is if there is a way to check if payment was received in paypal, and then execute some code. Or should I add a paypal widget where when payment is done then it executes some code? This is all being done in HTML and CSS being it is a website.
Take a look at Instant Payment Notification (IPN). Any time a transaction hits your PayPal account their server will POST the transaction data to a URL you specify. Your script receives the data, verifies it with PayPal to ensure it actually came from them, and then you can process that data however you need to.
This gives you the ability to update your own database, send out your own email notifications, hit 3rd party web services, or anything else you want to automate when transactions hit your account. This works for payments, refunds, disputes, etc. so you can automate lots of tasks. It happens in real-time, too.

User is not allowed to perform this action

Our platform is trying to create a feature so that a seller can refund a paypal transaction after 60 days. To do this our thought was that we would use the adaptive payment feature and simply ask paypal to send money from seller to buyer.
We created an application, and in the sandbox we have everything working. When we move to production we get this response below.
{"errorId":"550001","domain":"PLATFORM","subdomain":"Application","severity":"Error","category":"Application","message":"User is not allowed to perform this action"}]}
The question is, "How does the seller authorize our platform?" Do they need to check a box in their Paypal account?
What's a bit confusing to us, is that we are testing with our own 'seller' account which is of course a valid Paypal account.
Furthermore, we are doing a simple implicit approval. We did notice that in our application registration we are 'conditionally excepted'. We read that simple payments should work fine, it is only the chained payments that require specific approval from paypal.

Get profile id after subscription from button in response

Is there any way to get Profile Id as response after subscription through button.
I am able to get payer_id, payer_email and others as transaction variables but i need profile id so that i can cancel that subscription from my website.
Or is there any way to cancel recurring payment without Profile Id
You can use IPN to get the Profile ID back to your system. Instant Payment Notification (IPN) is a message service that notifies you of events related to PayPal transactions. You can use it to automate back-office and administrative functions, such as fulfilling orders, tracking customers, and providing status and other information related to a transaction.

"callback" from PayPal to confirm payment?

I have a very simple online ordering app in Perl. The user fills in a form, and when they submit, my app inserts the info into a mySql database, then redirects them to PayPal to complete the payment. The problem is that the database does not have any information about whether they actually completed the payment. I end up having to manually reconcile a report from PayPal with my database to confirm payment for each order.
Is there anything like a "callback" from PayPal, where I could provide PayPal with a unique identifier for the order and PayPal could send back that identifier as confirmation that the order was paid, preferably through an HTTP request back to my server? Then I could update the order in my database with a "paid" flag.
yes, that's pretty much exactly how it works.
