PayPal revenue leak scan
Find PayPal revenue leaks without sharing your PayPal client secret.
Upload PayPal exports or use webhook-only monitoring to find subscription drift, refund/access mismatches, dispute evidence gaps, and PayPal/app-state mismatches. Full sync is optional and only needed for historical backfill.
What it finds
Post-checkout PayPal drift before it becomes leakage or disputes.

Three setup modes
Start with the lightest setup path that works.
No-secret mode
CSV upload
Upload PayPal exports and app-state snapshots for a one-time Ghost Audit without storing PayPal API credentials.
Webhook-only mode
Forward monitoring
Create a Revenue Linter webhook URL and save the PayPal webhook ID. No PayPal client secret is required.
Advanced mode
Full sync
Use PayPal REST app credentials only when you deliberately want historical subscriptions, transactions, disputes, refunds, and reversals backfilled.
