Creating Recurring Payments Profiles

Options for Creating a Recurring Payments Profile Programmatically

14 Payflow Recurring Payments Developer’s Guide

Upon successful creation of a profile, PayPal activates the profile, initiates the billing cycle,

and returns a profile ID. Upon failure, PayPal does not generate the profile and, instead,

returns a status message.

As with all direct payments, PayPal is completely invisible to the buyer. The buyer’s credit

card statement will not indicate that PayPal processed the payment.
