Chatter is an inbuilt social media platform designed for Salesforce.
Chatter updates can only currently be generated for transactions that are created/updated by an internal user and not from the online payment checkout form. This is due to a restriction in place by salesforce.com. If you wish to track these updates, then it is suggested to enable chatter feed tracking on the Payment Transaction Object field “Chatter Posts”.
