My site is set up to sell licenses to a software. It has a subscription widget so the customer can select the quantity and see what the price would be. Then after selecting order now it directs to a purchase now lightbox where they fill in their personal information. Once they say purchase now, it brings up the PayPal “your details” where clicking continue takes you to “Payment Details” to pay with PayPal. By selecting “pay now” the customer is supposed to log into PayPal and pay. This then send the customer their unique link in an email. This all works just fine for a onetime payment but not for recurring which is what we want it to be. What we want is for the call to PayPal to take the customer to the PayPal and when they login they get the “choose a way to pay” window where they can select continue and then get the page where they have to agree to the automatic payments and continue. Since it seems there is limits using the wix-pay backend call what can I use instead of the wix pay to get the desired call. The product is already set up as a subscription product on PayPal and this is the only thing that needs to be fixed since everything else works as it should. Just putting in a PayPal subscription button is not an option. We have been trying to figure this out for so long and wix support hasn’t been any help. PLEASE HELP!!
If you’ve set up PayPal using the node package in backend, this will be your best option:

Thank you, do you know of any documentation that helps show how to replace using the wixpay with the paypal code?
@bk03 It’s similar to this:

Just keep in mind, you have to reference PayPal’s API documentation, and not Stripe’s.
