Question Is the paypal commission payout automatic?

Answer No, the commission is not distributed automaticly.
However, there is an export to csv report that can be used to create a file that can be imported into PayPal to pay everyone at once.
This report is at the bottom of the "Referral Marketing" page when logged in as the admin.

Q. How do I have it redirect directly to the create account page from paypal without it requiring them to click a button to proceed?

A. With PayPal, after a person pays, they are required to click a button (that is not noticable to many people) to continue back to your site to finish the join process. This can cause many people to get stuck in the PROCESSING mode. With PayPal, you can have it to automatically redirect to your website after payment so the person is not required to click on a button to proceed. To do this, you must turn this on within your PayPal account.

Q. With direct payment if we do a monthly paypal subscription and the customer cancels will the software automatically suspend?

A. Yes, it will suspend them. We caution to be careful if you have more than 1 tier, or an admin payment because the person gets logged out when only 1 of their possible many subscriptions is canceled.

Q. Where in my admin does the software process the commissions and automatically pay them?

A. There is a report on the "Referral Program" page at the bottom of the page where you can see who has earned what and what payouts you need to make.
