At the moment, I have PHP code which allows user1 to pay user2. If user2 logs into his/her paypal account s/he will see a refund
button next to the transaction for 60 days.
If user2 clicks the refund
button, is it possible for my PHP code to capture and/or receive details about this refund event, even though all this is happening directly from the paypal site?
I'm guessing this is not possible, but am posting this question with the thought that I could be wrong as I don't know paypal's api's like the back of my hand.
PayPal will no longer allow refunds for Friends and Family payments. This is because these types of payments are not covered by PayPal's Purchase Protection Program.
Protection you can count on. If you don't receive the item that you ordered, or it shows up significantly different from its description, you may qualify for Purchase Protection, and we'll reimburse you for the full purchase price plus any original shipping costs, subject to terms and limitations.
The answer depends on the source of the funding from the sender. It takes just a few minutes to send from their PayPal balance or a debit/credit card. If the money comes from a linked bank account, it can take two to three business days to clear the bank.
