I’m working on a couple of sites which I hope to sell on a monthly subscription basis. I’m looking at Active Merchant and PayPal Website Payments Pro (UK) as a possible way forward, although I don’t think Active Merchant handles PayPal recurring payments…? Anyway, any advice about the easiest (and cheapest?) way to handle subscriptions here in the UK would be most welcome.

Or I suppose I could just have a PayPal Donate button and hope for the best!

Chris.

You’re right, ActiveMerchant alone does not handle Paypal recurring profiles. We’ve built our own system on top of ActiveMerchant to deal with monthly payments, but it’s not pretty and not something I’d be comfortable sharing – at least in its current, untidy, form.

However, if I were starting over I would probably look at adding a Payments Pro (UK) adapter to ServiceMerchant (http://servicemerchant.org/) – a ruby library that sits over ActiveMerchant to handle recurring stuff.
