Test Paddle webhooks
Paddle sends webhooks for transactions, subscriptions, customers, and adjustments in Paddle Billing. Capture them on a free webhooks.cc endpoint to see exactly what Paddle sends — or fire realistic, correctly signed sample payloads at your own handler without touching a production account.

How to test Paddle webhooks
- 1
Create a webhook endpoint
Sign in free with GitHub or Google to create a persistent endpoint — or grab an instant guest URL at webhooks.cc/go without an account.
- 2
Point Paddle at your URL
Paste the endpoint URL into Paddle: Paddle Dashboard → Developer Tools → Notifications → New destination.
- 3
Inspect what arrives
Each delivery appears live in the dashboard with method, headers, body, query parameters, and source IP.
- 4
Forward to localhost or assert in CI
Run whk tunnel <port> to forward webhooks to a local server, or use the TypeScript SDK to wait for and assert on deliveries in tests.
