PayPal REST API和定期付款

Question

I'm looking at the new PayPal REST API and the examples. Does it work as of today to make recurring payments? (aka: subscriptions with recurring payments with billing cycle and the number of times the recurring payment is made.)

I cannot find this information in the documentation.

Thanks,

Answer 1

PayPal REST API现在正式支持定期付款 （账单计划和协议）

Answer 2

The PayPal REST API doesn't currently offer recurring payments, although the Classic APIs do offer this feature:

Answer 3

There are two options here for the REST API.

First you can store a credit card in the vault to make recurring payments against that card.

The second option is not yet released, but will involve a long term OAuth token, see this answer .

Answer 4

Try the Paypal REST API-> https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/create-billing-plan/

After setting your account, you´ll get a secret key and client id, which you´ll use later on to make the call to the api.

Remeber to set the grant_type on the apiContext so you don´t get a 403.

Billing Plan and Agreement APIs are also deprecated, we can use Subscription API instead,
