Note: PayPal Recurring Subscriptions will be available in the next release of AccessAlly.
By default, PayPal recurring subscriptions are not enabled – so you’ll need to go under AccessAlly’s General Settings -> Payment -> PayPal to enable them.
Once you’ve located this tab, simply enable the checkbox on the “PayPal Recurring Subscriptions” section and hit Save.
That’s all you have to do to enable recurring payments or payment plans through PayPal. Now when someone checks out through the AccessAlly order forms, they can pay for a payment plan or recurring subscription via their PayPal account.
A few things to keep in mind:
- Anyone can cancel a subscription through their own PayPal account. If they cancel, AccessAlly will apply the “Payment Failed” automation so you can get in touch with the customer to come back and complete their payments.
- This is especially important for a payment plan instead of a recurring monthly subscription, and you may want to word your follow-up emails accordingly.
- Members can still cancel their subscriptions through AccessAlly’s interface, too.
