E-commerce web form recurring payment

[jojoejojo]

Hi,

In this tutorial--

http://bcgurus.com/tutorial/how-to-create-business-catalyst-payment-forms

I learned how to create a payment form. But there's no option on the form builder for recurring billing cycle.  Can I add that option for monthly payment somehow?  Please help.  Thank you!

You do that on the product itself. Under its Cycle bit.

Note: You can only use this if your seamless payment gateway supports recuring Billing.

Hi Liam,

Yes, I realize I can do that on the product.  However, I am creating a payment form with an amount that will be entered by the user.  (A monthly donation form.)  That's why I am using a web form.

Or if we can create a recurring product with "name your own price" kind of deal, that would work too.

To do that use secure zones. Assign them to a zone and have a monthly fee associated with that. It does not have to be a functional login area but you use the ability to do the reciting from that.
