Recurring payments
Posted: Thu Jul 19, 2012 5:43 pm
Hi,
What is the best way to handle recurring payments? It seems that it is simple enough to set up through PayPal, but I don't then see how it is possible to tell easily who has a current subscription.
For instance, if I am sending out a monthly email to all people who have bought a subscription to my beautfiul newsletter, if I filter the mail to limit recipients to those who have bought that product, opencart includes ALL people who have bought it, regardless of whether their order status is "cancelled'. This seems like a bit of a flaw, but perhaps I am missing something and making things more complicated than they need be?
Cheers.
