Paypal

Barrucadu · 08-14-2005, 10:18 AM

How, can I make a form where a user puts in the name of the file, it works out the price (£0.50 per MB) and they pay via paypal, it checks if the payment has gone through then it automaticly pays every month until they send an email to me saying 'Please cancel blah blah blah.... reasons go here blah blah...'? some help please.

I can do all of that except the paypal bit.

Just set up a Paypal automatic subscription button. When clicked, this will take the user to a payment page, powered by Paypal (you can change it from the default Paypal branding) and, once they fill in their information, it will set it up to pay an amount (set by you) at intervals set by you.

Then, if you do get a cancellation request, simply cancel the subscription

At least, I think that's how it works ...

You can find more info by clicking the tab that says "For Merchants" I believe

Of course, you need a Merchant account.... it's free.
