NYCPHP Meetup

[Brian Dailey]

I have not used Paypal for recurring payments - I did write a system 
that integrated with Verisign's recurring payment system (now actually 
owned by Paypal).

Zend had an article on Paypal integration (including recurring payments) 
but they took it down. You can still find the article on archive.org's 
"wayback machine":

The original URL was http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/tutorial-paypal.php
