    You can change the Payment type option in the Payment wizard to Sell Subscriptions. Here's how:

    1. Open your form and select the payment field then click the Wand icon (payment wizard).

    Thank you for your speedy response.
    I set up my form. What I’m asking about is the mechanics of the billing. Once clients fill out this form and submit it, does PayPal automatically bill them each month?

    Hi there,

    The answer to your question is yes. Once you choose "Sell Subscriptions" in PayPal integration and follow the instructions given by my colleague, PayPal will automatically bill your customers each period (depending on the subscription period you choose). To set your subscription period, please see below.
