Payment Gateway Bundle addon – Recurring Billing Using Paypal Pro

[Rhubarb]

We are trying to bring all of the above together to do the following:

Allow customer to subscribe to service without creating a Paypal account. Everything seems to be set up correctly (using Paypal Pro, API info etc) but our short-code Subscribe buttons still send to Paypal checkout page rather than the /collect-details/ page. Also, we do not need Shipping info… where do I customize the checkout details, and how do we implement all of this from our product short-code buttons? I thought I would check for a solution here first before diving into the Bundle plugin code……

Many of the support threads on Paypal and subscriptions seem outdated and contradictory…perhaps an updated KB doc on the subject could be helpful for many of us out here wishing to use your great products to their fullest potential

Thank you!

Hi, currently onsite subscription option is not available in the gateway bundle addon (using PayPal pro). It works with Standard PayPal which comes with eStore by default.

To disable shipping option please open the collect details page and replace the existing shortcode with the following:

[wp_pg_process_order show_shipping="0"]

So essentially you are saying there is no way for a customer to subscribe to our service using Paypal as the payment gateway without having to create a Paypal account?

We have recurring billing enabled via our Paypal Pro account

Hi, you can also get paid by credit or debit card using PayPal standard. A customer doesn’t have to have a PayPal account to subscribe to your service.

Your customers can pay via their credit card (no need to sign-up for PayPal) or via their PayPal account (if they have one already). See the following documentation for more details:

Thank you for the link, although this is not quite the process we are looking for. What we are trying to do is to accept credit card payments through our own form, pass the transaction to Paypal in the background, and send the customer to the register page…. we do NOT want to send them to a Paypal checkout page … is this scenario possible?

Thank you so much for your help.

Using [wp_pg_process_order show_shipping=”0″] and still shows the shipping information on the page: [http://universal-tao.tv/collect-details]

any ideas?

Also, regarding the Paypal integration, this is from a document from Paypal which outlines what I am trying to do:

Recurring payments with Direct Payment enables a recurring payment to be associated with a debit or credit card. For these payments, you must collect on your website all necessary information from your buyer, including billing amount and buyer’s credit card information.

After you have collected the information, call the CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile API for each profile to be created. The CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile request must contain all required credit card information and must not contain a value for the TOKEN field.

We are working on adding the recurring payment option to PayPal Pro checkout. We should have this ready in a day or two. I will give you an update.

I will keep an eye out.. thank you!

Anything on this yet? Our launch date is being pushed back until we can sort out the ecommerce.

Thanks!

Nearly done… I will be able to give you an update tomorrow.

Hi, I have sent an email to your registered email address with the updated gateway bundle addon. Let me know if you don’t receive it.

[Rhubarb]

Thank you! We have installed the plugin, etc but I have a couple of questions:

1: is there a place on the Collect Details page where one can enter a coupon code generated from the eStore?

2: when I tried placing a test order I received the following: Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in/home/content/63/10143963/html/wp-content/plugins/wp-payment-gateway/lib/paypal-pro/pppro_subsc_utility.php on line 130

Any ideas here?

Thank you very much for working out this connection with Paypal

[wpCommerce]

Hi, yes you can. You will just need to install the WP eStore Subscription coupon/discount addon:

WP eStore Subscription Coupon/Discount Addon

I have sent you an email with the updated addons. Please install them on your site and let me know how it goes.
