Subscription Billing Cycles - Can i set 3 month and 6 month cycles?

[aarondvsion]

Hey everyone - I am building a subscription based website. I want to offer Monthly, 3 month, 6 month, and 1 year subscription options.

I am using Auth.net for credit cards and it allows me to do all of that. I feel like its possible using Paypal but i cant find any reading on it and my web developer is thinking its not possible using paypal.

I know we can do monthly and yearly but are we able to do 3 months and 6 months too? IE A user buys a 6 month subscription on Feb 1 2018. He is has access to our content until Aug 31 2018 and is not billed again until Sept 1. 

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

Hello Aaronvsion,

You can create customised billing plan that will bill the customer at a choosen interval (every 1-2-3...6 months is possible).

The following page gives an example of integration using REST API with a frequency interval of 2 Months (the buyer will be billed every two months)

The following page explains also how to integrate Billing Plans : https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/billing-plans-and-agreements/#integration-steps...
