PayPal Webhook Testing for local handlers

Validate PayPal payment webhooks locally with secure tunnel URLs, retries, and verification-first event processing.

Who this is for

Payments teams handling PayPal transactions and dispute notifications.

Primary keyword

paypal webhook localhost

Verification checkpoint

Use PayPal webhook verification API before mutating order state.

Quick start pattern

Command

instatunnel webhook init --provider paypal --port 3000 --path /webhooks/paypal

Public endpoint example

https://your-subdomain.instatunnel.my/webhooks/paypal

Provider field mapping

Public URLhttps://your-subdomain.instatunnel.my/webhooks/paypal
Local portUse the port from your local app command.
Success checkUse PayPal webhook verification API before mutating order state.

Failure fixes

If the provider cannot reach the endpoint, confirm the local app is running and restart the tunnel with the same subdomain.

If events arrive but fail verification, compare the exact public URL and signature secret configured in the provider dashboard.

If retries create duplicates, store the provider event ID before performing side effects.
