Scenario:
Gateway used is PayPal.
1) I have a product that is expensive and I want to allow customers to make monthly payments until they pay for the product.
2) At the END of the recurring billing period I want to email the customers the download instructions.
Can I do this with WP eStore?
Is there an action or a hook that I can connect to where I can add my own code to handle this?
I did find the post about installments, but that allows only 3 additional payments and in this case I need 6.
Thank you.

That is understandable; if you were using recurring payments to collect the product cost. That’s because the buyer can cancel a recurring payment.
We do have an eStore PayPal Installment Payment Addon. The payments cannot be canceled; and the buyer can be given the download link(s) immediately at the time of purchase.

And which post was that?
When searching the forums I stumbled into this post:
That linked here:
And I quote:
“You can offer installment plans that collect the first installment on checkout, with up to 3 additional installments. Or, you can set up installment plans that defer the first installment, with up to 4 installments.”
The limitation is imposed by PayPal:
PayPal also requires the last payment be made within 1 year of checkout. With ***THAT*** restriction in mind; they probably picked “4” for business reasons, because collecting more than 4 installment payments in one year would eat too much into the payment fee merchants (you) are charged.
