API: Webhooks

The recharge API can send an HTTP POST to a script you specify whenever a charge for one of your customers gets approved or declined.

The webhook URL can be set by logging into Recharge and going to Settings > Hosted Payment Pages.

This is another feature that PostBin can help you with. Set the webhook URL to your PostBin URL and you'll be able to see the contents of all the webhooks we send.
