Skip Navigation Links. Cancelling Subscription

If you have placed a Subscription Button  in your web application, you may also want to place a "Cancel Subscription" Button which will take your customers to the PayPal Unsubscribe page for previous subscriptions. "Cancel Subscription" button will not directly cancel a subscription, rather clicking this button will take your customer to PayPal website. Your customer will require to log into PayPal. After successful login, your customer will be taken to un-subscription page where all recurring payment list will be shown filtered by your Business Email Address.

In order to place a "Cancel Subscription" Button in your web form, please follow the following steps:

  1. Drag and drop an instance of the Cancel Subscription Button Control from your Visual Studio Toolbox as shown below:



  2. The only property of this control that you need to set is your Business Email Address or Merchant ID. Merchant ID is an alternative to using your Email address. It is better not to expose your business email address in order to protect your Email Inbox from SPAMs. You can get your Merchant ID from your PayPal account's Profile section. You can set either Business Email or Merchant ID from the Smart Tag or from the Property Editor.

  3. You are all set. If you already have provided the LicenseKey  from the design mode Smart Tag, then clicking this button will take your customer to PayPal Unsubscription page, otherwise it will take your customer to PayPal SandBox.

Not only PayPal related properties, you can also set Image Button related properties like Image URL, Border Color, Border Width etc from the property editor.
