Billing Agreements
The Billing Agreements page lists all PayPal billing agreements between your store and its customers. The store administrator can filter the records by the customer or billing agreement information, including billing agreement reference ID, status, and creation date. Each record includes general information about the billing agreement, and all sales orders that have used it as a payment method. A store administrator can view, cancel, or delete customer billing agreements. A canceled billing agreement can be deleted only by the store administrator.
When a customer places an order using a billing agreement, Adobe Commerce and Magento Open Source send the billing agreement reference ID and sales order billing information to PayPal. After PayPal authorizes the payment, it sends the billing agreement reference ID to both the customer and the store.
