Subscriptions need to work with PayPal (18)

I currently have customers on monthly auto-ship subscription. I not only accept the normal credit cards through my shopping cart, but also offer PayPay as some customers do not like to share their credit card information. The only problem with having a PayPal customer is that when they are set up as a Subscriber, their order never gets processed for payment as we do not have the customer's credit card information. We need to fix this! There needs to be integration with PayPay for this to happen. Initial orders work just fine, it's the orders the following month that do not. Subscriptions are a great way for repeat sales!

  Just a little pre-research, from what I'm seeing there are some custom fields that have to be sent when processing the first payment/subscription that would allow it to be 'reapplied' each month/interval. Otherwise the customer would have to reapprove each sale and that is not ideal. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/xcl/rec/subscr-intro-outside Let us know if anyone finds another way to see that part through. Thanks Greg for the vote!

  Only require the reapproval when paypal is the payment method - this is needed.
