    <p>I really wanted to do this myself but after almost a week of reading Paypal's documentations about their services and APIs and addon services, I quit. I need help.</p> <p>I have a website which will have a monthly subscription of three different packages and I would like to use PayPal's Hosted Pages. Now, I'm facing a few problems.</p> <p><s>First, their documentation is so damn confusing that I still don't understand it exactly what they offer and what do I need. So, any help would be greatly appreciated. Currently I have Payments Advanced with Recurring Billing addon and Hosted Checkout Page set up. My first problem is that when I make an API call to get a SecureTokenID, I get response 1 (User authentication failed), but the login details are correct, I checked multiple times. Here is my code for making this call:</s></p> <p><s></p> <pre><code>/* - build NVP to be sent to paypal - */ $post['PARTNER']='paypal'; $post['VENDOR']='*'; $post['USER']='*'; $post['PWD']='*'; $post['TRXTYPE']='S'; $post['AMT']='5'; $post['CREATESECURETOKEN']='Y'; $post['SECURETOKENID']=md5(time().rand().time()); $post['MODE']='TEST'; $url='https://pilot-payflowpro.paypal.com'; /* - do cURL request to PayPal's API - */ $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE); // curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2); // I know, inhere should be a certificate and it will be in final version curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post); // curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 10); // 3 seconds to connect // curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10); // 10 seconds to complete $output = curl_exec($ch); if(curl_errno($ch)){ echo'error:' . curl_error($ch); } curl_close($ch); </code></pre> <p></s></p> <p><s>Second problem is, where exactly can I enter a custom variable field, which will represent a database entry, so I will know from IPN which user has subscribed/unsubscribed?</s></p> <p>Third, is it possible to set the subscription options in PayPal Manager interface, or must I sent the subscription details on every single transaction?</p> <p>Fourth, am I going this the right way?? From their website and docs, I understood that I need a Payments Advanced and Recurring Billing, nothing more. Requirement is that the user can't leave the website, so I want to use a Hosted Checkout Page.</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong>: I solved first and second (this is the second time I figured it out myself after I posted a question over here :)), but I would need help with third and fourth point.</p> <p>Also I have additional question. Can Recurring Billing be suspended for users's selected period?</p>
