How to Setup Recurring Billing in PayPal

Hi this is Rich Brooks of Flyte New Media. We’re a web design and internet marketing company. If you were in a business where you have products for sale that require recurring billing; you might want to take a look at Pay Pals to automate the billing process for you.

Let me show you how. Once you log in to your account, you’re going to go over to Merchant Services. Once in Merchant Services, you’re going o go down to the “add to cart” button. You’re going to choose products to subscriptions in recurring billing. Then you are going to go ahead and name your product. You can add in the subscription ID if you want to, you can add drop down menus without prices, add a text field, customize the appearance. For example, you might want to use a smaller button.

There are a number of elements you can change as well. One of the things you’re going to want to do though is include a recurring amount to be built, $15.00 then you are going to choose the billing cycle. We’re going to choose every two weeks. The next thing you’re going to decide is how long they’re going to build up. You can actually choose just twice all the way to never stop billing. Try and build a costumer again after failed attempt, offer trial to your subscribers and there are a number of different options in terms of track inventory or customized advanced features but we are going to leave those alone right now. Click on create button and this is the code that goes on your web page or if you want to send this as an invoice; you just click on email. I can select that text, open up a new page and just make sure that the final product is going to look like what I wanted to.

So I hope this has been helpful. This has been Rich Brooks of Flyte New Media.
