In this tutorial we demonstrate how to setup DotNetNuke to accept subscription payments using PayPal.

These features are built in to DotNetNuke, so you can set this up for free without having to make payments for additional ecommerce modules.

Using DotNetNuke’s subscription facilities, registered users can pay to access subscriber only content such as articles, ebooks, music and video downloads etc.

We demonstrate how you can set this up using security roles in DotNetNuke. This tutorial builds on the security roles tutorials from issue 1 and issue 14.
