Automatic Billing Button - Bill Now?

by TropheusX Contributor in About Selling
‎Aug-13-2014 10:28 AM
‎Aug-13-2014 10:28 AM
Hi, I've set up an Automatic Billing system for a newsmag company and the problem we're facing is that its taking too much time to individually go through each subscriber and accept their payments by individually billing them. Is there a way the amount they input into the "Maximum amount you can be billed up to" automatically starts billing them? Without me having to accept and choose the payment and the amount? Thanks.    If this question is too confusing or vague, I can elaborate. Thanks ... View more

How to complete PayPal purchase on my website?

by TropheusX Contributor in About Selling

‎Jul-16-2014 08:26 AM
Hey guys!   So, I was wondering if there was a way a customer can complete payments on my website rather than be redirected to paypal and complete the purchase there.    The customer hits a subscribe button and gets redirected to paypal to confirm the payment, login, etc, is there a way I can integrate this so that the customer doesnt have to be redirected, rather complete the transaction on my website, or even a small popup that completes the transaction and closes once the purchase is made. Thank you for any help. If my question is too vague, I can elaborate further. Thanks again. ... View more

Actually I figured it out by just removing the option values and setting a default value at the start of the code for both p3 and t3.   <input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="t3" value="M">   Thank you very much for your assistance! 🙂   ... View more

Hey, I was going through the code to try to make some changes but was not able to make the ones I was hoping to. I wanted to set default values by using selected="selected" for p3,t3 and scr but I kept getting errors. So I tried to remove all other options other than 1 option, but got another error. How can I make 1 option for all 3 drop down menus and how can I hide everything other than just the Input Value and Subscribe button? ... View more

Hi. I want to create a button which will have recurring payment (Subscription Button) BUT I want the customer to be able to input an amount that he/she wishes to pay, monthly. I've been scratching my head going over codes and can't figure this out. I tried to make a "Buy Now" button because it has the pay what you want feature, however; it is not recurring payments. Any help is greatly appreciated, if my problem is unclear, I can try to explain in more detail. ... View more
