Why is shipping being added to my IPN response? Th is has worked for years but all off a sudden some of our IPN requests are containing shipping parameters like the one below for 17.01 We never send anything in regards to shipping. This should of been a gross amount of 567.01 (which was regular price of $550.00 plus $17.01 processing fee). It then adds another 17.01 as shipping to get this $584.02 below. Does PayPal have a way to add shipping on their side outside of any third party redirects?

Hi @cblaze22 ,
Thank you for posting to the PayPal Community.
PayPal Standard has a shipping calculator available within the PayPal Profile. This will add shipping to all PayPal Standard transactions.
Here is basic information:

This is where you can update the shipping calculator:
Here's how to calculate shipping costs for purchases made on your website:
- Log into your PayPal Account
- Go to Account Settings.
- Click Shipping under "Products and Services" on the left menu.
- Click Update next to "Shipping Calculations."
Most likely the receiving account has the shipping calculator settings setup in the PayPal Profile.
Thank you,
Jennifer
