PayPal Information and Tutorial
Definition of Pre-approved Payment Terms
Recurring Payments
A Recurring Payment is a payment in which you provide an advance authorization to a merchant to charge your PayPal account directly on a one-time, regular, or sporadic basis. Recurring Payments are sometimes called "Subscriptions" or "Preapproved Payments".
Billing Agreement
When you establish a Recurring Payment with Stripe, you are also entering into a Billing Agreement with PayPal. By entering into a Billing Agreement you are authorizing PayPal to allow Stripe to charge your PayPal account directly. PayPal facilitates the transaction between you and Stripe, but does not enforce contractual obligations for payment by you or for delivery of goods or services by Stripe.
Funding Sources Selection
When Stripe requests a payment from your PayPal account, PayPal will always attempt to withdraw funds from your PayPal balance first. If funds in your balance are insufficient, PayPal will look for and attempt to charge a preferred funding source that you have set up for the Recurring Payment. You will have the option to select a preferred funding source during enrolment, and you can update or change your preferred funding Source at any time via the Account Profile section on the PayPal website.
If the preferred funding source fails (for example, a credit or debit card expires), then PayPal will use other available funding sources within your PayPal account. You will have the ability to disable funding sources for your Recurring Payment, with the exception that if you have one or more credit or debit cards linked to your PayPal account, then at least one of those cards must be enabled for billing.
Cancelling Recurring Payments
You may cancel a Recurring Payment at any time up to 3 working days prior to the date the payment is scheduled to take place. If your payment is funded by your bank account, then you may cancel this payment following notice of the payment to be made by contacting PayPal customer support via email or telephone. To cancel a Recurring Payment generally, log into your account, access the "My Account" tab, then access the "Profile" tab, the access the "Financial Information" column and click on "Billing Agreements" and follow the instructions to cancel the payment. If your Recurring Payment is not in this column, then access the "History" tab instead of the "Profile" tab and access "Subscriptions" and follow the directions to cancel the payment. Recurring Payments are sometimes referred to as "subscriptions" or "preapproved payments". If you cancel a Recurring Payment you may still be liable to the merchant for the payment and be required to pay the merchant through alternative means.
