I long for the day stripe comes to the UK... It's the one that makes most sense to me and I'm surprised no one has done this earlier...

Thanks for this but again, it's not the most convenient method as it waits till the end of the billing period and it doesnt appear to send an IPN update straight away, I've also read that it has a 20% price change limit somewhere else as well?

True but this doesnt make it easy or rather possible for a user to upgrade or downgrade themselves

Fair play, I know what you're trying to say but what I'm trying to work out is if there is a service which simplifies the paypal subscription handling and rather than be free, just charge per transaction like paypal rather than monthly which holds risk

Thanks for highlighting this. Would you say that the paypal api is overly complex and a bit of a headache with what im trying to achieve?

Thanks for sharing but it seems pretty expensive in terms of transaction fees

Hi thanks for this, I am aware of these facilities but they aren't ideal as they require too much manual work for upgrades and downgrades, also not good for UX - what i'm looking for is a happy medium which handles automation of upgrades and downgrades, creation of subscriptions and failure or cancellation via paypal without the headache but not a solution which requires merchant accounts and or gateways which costs more money. thanks

Thanks for this but again it requires a monthly fee and a gateway as well

THanks for your response, yeh I can imagine the variable fee would be a nightmare. I think it's the upgrade and downgrade facility which is most complicated in PayPal, no easy way of doing it.
