PayPal Billing Cycle - Link To Form Variable

  1. Good Afternoon Staff:

    I've a hopefully quick question for the team. Basically I have a form setup, where a visitor to my website can order a monthly subscription, that is calculated off a few variables in the form. Now once the monthly rate is established, the visitor then has an option to pay monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually (multiple months are given discounts). Everything said so far works great, but I have one problem.

    Through PayPal Transaction Settings, the form is setup to establish a 1 month billing cycle. When a visitor selects multiple months for the discount, I need to have the billing cycle change dynamically. Hopefully this makes sense. As an example, if a visitor pays for 1 year and receives a discount, the next payment is charged next month (not next year).

    Thanks a bunch!

    So basically, you would need to create multiple Paypal feeds, one for each period you want to use, and then use conditional logic (opt-in condition) on the paypal feeds to determine which feed should be used. Does that make sense?
