openapi: 3.0.3 info: title: Paypal Subscriptions Authorizations Pricing API description: You can use billing plans and subscriptions to create subscriptions that process recurring PayPal payments for physical or digital goods, or services. A plan includes pricing and billing cycle information that defines the amount and frequency of charge for a subscription. You can also define a fixed plan, such as a $5 basic plan or a volume- or graduated-based plan with pricing tiers based on the quantity purchased. For more information, see Subscriptions Overview. version: '1.6' contact: {} servers: - url: https://api-m.sandbox.paypal.com description: PayPal Sandbox Environment - url: https://api-m.paypal.com description: PayPal Live Environment tags: - name: Pricing paths: /v1/billing/plans/{id}/update-pricing-schemes: post: summary: Update pricing description: Updates pricing for a plan.
