we plan to change the domain name for our service. Therefore we need to update the IPN-url for our existing customers. I have tried googling a solution on how to change the IPN-url for current subscriptions, but I haven't been able to find anything. Any help is appreciated. best regards Thomas I had exactly the same problem .... I had to move servers which meant my IPN url changed. I have spoken to 3 different paypal reps and even had a meeting with a tech support guy from there. Unfortunately, there is NO WAY to change the IPN url for existing customers/subscriptions.
