Installed this plug-in today

I’ve been using the Woocommerce PayPal plugin written by PayPal for years. It worked perfectly, even for the Dutch payment method iDeal (a kind of bank transfer method). When iDeal stopped working, refreshing web-hooks made it work again.

Anyway recently the PayPal plugin written by PayPal (not this one here) started to fail on a few payments. Not many. I had assumed the buyer was at fault. iDeal payments were processed but they failed to properly inform my website when payment was made. Previously they had worked fine. What a pity, the PayPal plugin by PayPal worked perfectly, but updates seem to have broken it!

Well today I installed this PayPal plugin. A customer made a transaction as soon as I deleted the old plugin by PayPal and added this one. The transaction went through perfectly. The customer commented my payment processing pages were much faster. Unfortunately given the customer made the transaction at the same time I deleted the old plugin and installed this one, I’m not sure which plugin processed it successfully. Maybe a hint is that the old plug-in failed for him twice in a row before. So perhaps it is likely this plugin worked.

Anyway I will have to add to my review here once a few more transactions are made.

But this shows it is good to have PayPal plugins written by a variety of different organisations. When one fails, it is good to have alternatives.
