The Create PayPal payment button page opens.
4. In the Choose a button type dropdown menu, select “Automatic Billing.”
5. From the Currency dropdown menu, select the currency for automatic billing plans that
buyers set up when they click your Automatic Billing button.
If you customize the text of your button by changing the country elsewhere in the Step 1
section, make sure here to select a currency to match.
6. Enter the payment details of your button.
With Automatic Billing buttons, buyers agree to pay you automatically when you bill them,
up to a limit that they choose. You set the parameters for the limits they choose.
Select one of the following check boxes:
– Let my customers choose their own maximum payment limits
In the Minimum payment limit field, enter the lowest maximum billing limit that you
want customers to choose. Customers cannot check out with a lower maximum than the
amount you enter here.
(Optional) In the Description field, enter a description of the goods or services for
which you will bill customers. The description appears above the text box where they
choose the monthly maximum. For example, you might enter: Regular house cleaning.
Prior to checkout, buyers enter monthly maximums in a text box above the button.
