Is there a Model for how to integrate a post-payment step into WP Estore?

[StarCircleAcademy]

I’m super motivated to add “GoToWebinar” post processing to a digital sale. That is, I want to add a post purchase step to automatically add the user to a goToWebinar event.

Is there any hint where I should start, or a recommended model for this?

Some background: I have “Webinars” purchaseable in my WP Estore. Those webinars include options like “purchase video” and others, and the purchase results in sending the user the pre-meeting notes as well as other components they may have selected. The missing part is actually registering them for the Webinar.

I’ve figured out a simple way to do this and a more sophisticated way. I’d like to start with the simple way and I am wondering if there is a model/recommendation for how to build this functionality with WP estore.

I think you can use eStore’s IPN forwarding feature to achieve this. You can tell eStore to forward the payment notification to a URL. It can be one of your scripts or the API URL of the GoToWebiner solution (some solutions directly take the PayPal IPN and do whatever it needs to do). When you forward it to your script, it will be notified every time there is a sale, your script can then communicate with the GoToWebiner API and create the account accordingly.
