Recurring payments
PayPal Express Checkout supports tokenization for recurring payments.
We strongly recommend that you ask explicit permission from the shopper if you intend to make future recurring payments. Being transparent about the payment schedule and the charged amount reduces the risk of chargebacks.
When creating a token through a PayPal Express Checkout payment, keep in mind the following:
- PayPal Express Checkout does not allow zero-value authorization requests to create a token.
- Tokenization through a PayPal Express Checkout request fails if the PayPal configuration object includes
intent: "tokenize".
Other than the above points, creating and using tokens for PayPal Express Checkout payments is the same as described for tokenization in general.
