Hello, can anyone give me advice on how to set up recurring billing.
I have spoken to two account manager, James Coyle, who never got back to me and Niamh Moran, who wouldn't even answer a single question. I mean we are trying to pay more money to Paypal
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks

Assuming you're using Payments Standard, you can generate the necessary code using the online button creator.
If you're using Payments Pro, it's done thru the various APIs.
As we don't know what you have in mind or which product you plan use, all we can do is provide some general thoughts.

Hi, thanks for that. We are currently on the standard payment. We can move up if necessary.
Generally I found this site explaining most of the process, but the button "Tools" is not visible on our admin system.
Any advice?

Payments Standard does not have an admin panel or system per say.
You simply login to your PayPal Account
Click on the Merchant Services tab.
From there you can click on "Create payment buttons for your website"
or
Under tools and settings
Click on "My saved buttons"

Thank you. I am less worried about the button and more where I can set it up.
In other words, fill out the details of what the client should be paying.
With admin system I meant, our account.

Should you need some documentation:

There's PDF files concerning how to create each type of item button.
There's also some good info here:
