Auto return on Paypal

[Pelenna]

Hi there,

Has anyone set this up? I want to as if people don't return to the website after payment they don't get a confirmation email, and it also mucks up my adwords conversion tracking. Problem is, I don't really use Paypal myself so I just wanted to check that this wouldn't create any problems for the users?

ipn - instant payment notification can send your customers anywhere you want when they have paid.
autoreturn simply tells paypal to send your customers to xyz.com after the transaction if ipn is not enabled.

which one is it?

Yep IPN is the way to go, far as I remember you just need to specify "return_url" or "notify_url" in your post to paypal and it will direct the customer to whatever you specify after payment
