    Not at this time. It's in development. Is PayPal a requirement for you?

    Yes. It would be a great convenience. We use PayPal and PayFlow Pro for all of our current systems.

    Is this a feature planned for a future release?

    It is planned but it is tied to another feature improvement -- a hosted customer interface. A completion date for that project is yet to be determined.

    Hi John. This was in development but during that process, we discovered some problems. First, the payflow pro gateway was being flaky about responding definitively regarding the status of a transaction. That can lead to huge headaches with duplicate transactions and upset customers. Second, the paypal terms require that the express checkout payment method be available along with the credit card method. Express checkout requires that the customer leaves your site to pay you. That leads to high complexity in your signup and subscription management process.

    In short, the decision was made to not support paypal at all at this time.
