Using PayPal Standard with Subscriptions

For subscription actions, you'll need to add a parameter to tell it to use the subscription buttons and the command, plus any subscription-specific settings:

views.py:

paypal_dict = {
   "cmd": "_xclick-subscriptions",
   "business": "your_account@paypal",
   "a3": "9.99",                      # monthly price
   "p3": 1,                           # duration of each unit (depends on unit)
   "t3": "M",                         # duration unit ("M for Month")
   "src": "1",                        # make payments recur
   "sra": "1",                        # reattempt payment on payment error
   "no_note": "1",                    # remove extra notes (optional)
   "item_name": "my cool subscription",
   "notify_url": "http://www.example.com/your-ipn-location/",
   "return_url": "http://www.example.com/your-return-location/",
   "cancel_return": "http://www.example.com/your-cancel-location/",

}

# Create the instance. form = PayPalPaymentsForm(initial=paypal_dict, button_type="subscribe")

# Output the button. form.render()
