Cancel the initial subscription through the paypal IPN (any ideas on how to achieve this? Is there a simple function to sort this out?)</p></blockquote> <p>Did a good bit of research on this today. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this is possible with PayPal Payments Standard. Since all the magic happens on PayPal's side, you have no access to actually modify any of the subscription details once it has been created.</p> <blockquote><p>2. Reinstate a new subscription with the paypal add-on (again, is there a hook I can manipulate to achieve this?)</p></blockquote> <p>Assuming the answer to #1 hasn't scared you off of this idea... you could create a new subscription for the user by setting up an separate "upgrade" form and then using the <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_paypal_fulfillment" rel="nofollow">gform_paypal_fulfillment</a> hook to update the user who submits the upgrade form. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/change-subscription-charge-made-on-automatic-recurring-billing-through-paypal#post-47300 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 07:19:18 +0000 adomedia 47300@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ok, so after a bit of research I'm thinking to achieve this I will have to:<br /> 1. Cancel the initial subscription through the paypal IPN (any ideas on how to achieve this? Is there a simple function to sort this out?)<br /> 2. Reinstate a new subscription with the paypal add-on (again, is there a hook I can manipulate to achieve this?)</p> <p>Thanks guys </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/change-subscription-charge-made-on-automatic-recurring-billing-through-paypal#post-47298 Wed, 25 Jan 2012 06:55:47 +0000 adomedia 47298@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>Is there a way to manipulate how much the recurring billing charge is that the paypal addon automatically tries to collect (at the end of the stated billing cycle)?</p> <p>I have a membership driven site using the user registration and paypal addons and justin tadlock's members plugin. This works fine. I also want to be able to offer my members the ability to upgrade their membership to a different level, therefore charging a different (higher) recurring cost at the end of their subscription term.</p> <p>Is this possible?</p> <p>Thanks </p>
