Re: Paypal Subscriptions
Dan, It is possible to do recurring billing with paypal and activemerchant if you are have a Website Payments Pro Payflow Edition account w/ recurring billing enabled. This type of account isn''t a standard offering on the paypal sites. I had to call a sales rep and specifically request this to get a special "token" I could use to apply. Activemerchant has built in support for doing recurring billing via Payflow using the Payflow gateway (which uses Paypal''s XMLPay apis). - Robin Curry On Jul 13, 11:47 pm, Dan German <rails-mailing-l...-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Hi, I''m currently using paypal with activemerchant and would like to > implement a recurring billing model.

They''re going through a branding transition, so it may not make sense right away.
