Instant Payment Notification

TODO

Payment Data Transfer

Use the pdt method to retrive a transaction by its ID.
The callback receives an eventual error and, if all goes well, the whole transaction object.

paypalClient.pdt('EPC66XON1D4EE27M9', (err, tx) => {
  if (err) throw err
  console.log(tx['payer_email'])
})
