Yes another paypal question. I'm trying to set up my "buttons" on paypal's site, and I needed some help. Is there anyway to charge a credit card monthly?

Thanks :)

Yes, if you sign up for a business account. It's called "Subscriptions" in PayPal's jargon - you can set the payment cycle to yearly, monthly, quarterly, whatever. But you have to be signed up for a business account.

You actually only need to have a premium account, but if you are charging them of course it will look a lot better if you had a business account since rather having your personal name, it will show your business name; although you can always stick to your old premium account if you couldn't be bothered to upgrade (or signup for a new one if you have not signed up).

Yeah I got a business acount and I figured it out shortly after post :P my own stupidity I guess :)

What's the main difference between Premium and Business account? Except you can add your own name on it?

There's really not much difference. But a business account allows you to change the name to a business and such. So instead of seeing your email, it will be Paying: XXX Inc. etc

Another difference between the two accounts is that you don't have the use of permissions with the premium account. I think the permissions feature is just for other people to access your account to get stats, such as your accountant.
