I was running a CentOS instance w/ php-fpm so my config had to be modified a bit. My php complained about my zend_extension declaration being in zzzz_custom.ini (which was located in /etc/php.d/zzzz_custom.ini)

NOTICE: PHP message: PHP Fatal error: [ionCube Loader] The Loader must appear as the first entry in the php.ini file in Unknown on line 0

Here's the finished script:

echo "Loading ioncube"
wget http://downloads3.ioncube.com/loader_downloads/ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
echo "Unzipping ioncube"
tar xvfz ioncube_loaders_lin_x86-64.tar.gz
echo "Move ioncube to usr/local"
mv ioncube /usr/local
echo "Add ioncube to php.ini"
sudo sed -i 1i"zend_extension=/usr/local/ioncube/ioncube_loader_lin_5.5.so" /etc/php.ini
echo "Restarting apache/php-fpm"
sudo service httpd restart
sudo service php-fpm restart
