We want to provide to hotel guests in a number of hotels gateway/ISP
services.

Which Paypal suites this type of transaction that require irrevocable
confirmation.

The guest wants to go onto the Internet NOW.

We can't afford to provide the service and then find out days later
that the authorization was revoked.

Thank you.

I'm not sure what you mean by "which Paypal"? There is only one PayPal...

Can you explain a bit more about what you're trying to do...?

Paypal offers what is called IPN notification which gives your code an
instant answer on whether the attempted charge was successful. Their site has
plenty of sample code, including ASP.NET code.

Thank you for the heads up.

Once a merchant has the IPN, does the transaction become irrevocable.
We don't want to provide Internet services only to be notified days
later that the money is no longer in our account.
