ecart and subscriptions

[mustang_sally_85344510]

Hello, Was wondering if anyone could help me. I'm trying to make a subscription site. Is there a solution recipe for this? I would like registration and subscription to happen pretty much at the same time...insert into the database.
Thank you in advance...

Do you need the website to do recurring billing? If so what gateway are you using Paypal? Authorize.net?

You might want to start with our user registration solution. Then the restistration and login would all be done and you would only need to worry about adding the commerce.

I plan on using paypal. My original plan was to have the user fill out the registration information then click "subscribe" button.....redirect to paypal......then back to log in. How do I acomplish this? With a session variable? and would that mess up the registration session? Thank you in advance....

The user registration starter pack includes the registration, login, database, and other functionality you might need.

I would start with that.

Then you could probably the email verification link with the paypal subscribe button and remove the current verification code from the email so that the only way to verify is from paypal.

Then use the current verification page to create an IPN page that will mark the paid user as verified after paypal payment is processed. This would be done with a combination of dataassist and ecart.
