How To Cancel Automatic PayPal Payments or Subscriptions

Paypal offers a recurring payments system for sellers or merchants. This allows the seller to set up an automatic, recurring payment or subscription which renews payments once they reach their expiry date.

This means, if you registered for a service that has a monthly billing cycle for example, and the payment was made through PayPal, your subscription will be automatically renewed at the end of the month. Your debit/credit card/PayPal account will be charged and payment taken when the billing cycle is triggered on expiry. This will continue until you cancel the recurring payment service through your PayPal account.

To stop this process and future billing charges you need to login to your PayPal account: http://www.paypal.com
