Hi,

You can create a PHP script that will connect to your database to check the clients with payments due. The script should be able to process the payment and update the payment status as needed.

Lastly, create a daily cron job for the script above. This can be done on your cpanel or equivalent.

Wouldn't you have to store the user's credit card details to do an automated cron job with paypal or paypal account details? That makes things very very scary if you're storing those details somewhere.

Is that what you are doing?
