Reusable Payments and Client Id for PayPal Checksums

[cyrrill]

As per https://developers.paymill.com/guides/paypal/payments

The reusable payment parameters are missing from the API client:

-d "require_reusable_payment=true" \
-d "reusable_payment_description=Automatically pay invoices using this account."

As well adding the client parameter, and tests

[cyrrill]

Replaces #116, moving to downstream branch out of master

Any idea when this will be merged? I need this for a recent project ...

Hello,

The require_reusable_payment & reusable_payment_description seem to have disappeared from the API, but the client parameter is definitely missing.

It is impossible to associate a Paypal Payment with a Client to create a Subscription otherwise.

@alexsegura Have a look at https://github.com/cyrrill/paymill-php

These issues have been fixed and merged there. You can use that repo while this "official" one gets fixed. Feel free to suggest (or make PRs) to that fork as well.

Thank you 👍
I was about to make a pull request for the exact same thing.

I'm actually wondering if Paypal is really supported to pay Subscriptions.

I see whole parts of the documentation about Paypal & Subscriptions have been removed a few months ago: paymill/paymill-documentation#45
When I see that I'm not really confident with implementing Paypal via Paymill...

Did you successfully implement Subscriptions with a Paypal Payment via Paymill?

It is supported, but it turned out that PayPal was requiring a hefty transaction history before authorizing the billing agreement option. (at least in my case) However, it appears this requirement may vary by country, so really the only way to know for sure is to try it and see if it works. For me, it worked in Test Mode perfectly, but upon switching to live mode in production, PayPal billing agreements were disallowed.
