# Create Plan Sample

This sample code demonstrate how you can create a billing plan, as documented here at: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/#create-a-plan API used: /v1/payments/billing-plans

require __DIR__ . '/../bootstrap.php'; use PayPal\Api\ChargeModel; use PayPal\Api\Currency; use PayPal\Api\MerchantPreferences; use PayPal\Api\PaymentDefinition; use PayPal\Api\Plan;

Create a new instance of Plan object

$plan = new Plan();

# Basic Information

Fill up the basic information that is required for the plan

$plan->setName('T-Shirt of the Month Club Plan') ->setDescription('Template creation.') ->setType('fixed');

# Payment definitions for this billing plan.

$paymentDefinition = new PaymentDefinition();

The possible values for such setters are mentioned in the setter method documentation. Just open the class file. e.g. lib/PayPal/Api/PaymentDefinition.php and look for setFrequency method. You should be able to see the acceptable values in the comments.

$paymentDefinition->setName('Regular Payments') ->setType('REGULAR') ->setFrequency('Month') ->setFrequencyInterval("2") ->setCycles("12") ->setAmount(new Currency(array('value' => 100, 'currency' => 'USD')));

Charge Models

$chargeModel = new ChargeModel(); $chargeModel->setType('SHIPPING') ->setAmount(new Currency(array('value' => 10, 'currency' => 'USD'))); $paymentDefinition->setChargeModels(array($chargeModel)); $merchantPreferences = new MerchantPreferences(); $baseUrl = getBaseUrl();

ReturnURL and CancelURL are not required and used when creating billing agreement with payment_method as "credit_card". However, it is generally a good idea to set these values, in case you plan to create billing agreements which accepts "paypal" as payment_method. This will keep your plan compatible with both the possible scenarios on how it is being used in agreement.

$merchantPreferences->setReturnUrl("$baseUrl/ExecuteAgreement.php?success=true") ->setCancelUrl("$baseUrl/ExecuteAgreement.php?success=false") ->setAutoBillAmount("yes") ->setInitialFailAmountAction("CONTINUE") ->setMaxFailAttempts("0") ->setSetupFee(new Currency(array('value' => 1, 'currency' => 'USD'))); $plan->setPaymentDefinitions(array($paymentDefinition)); $plan->setMerchantPreferences($merchantPreferences);

For Sample Purposes Only.

$request = clone $plan;
