    I have set up a non-recurring annual Paypal subscription with a 30 day free trial.
    However, when trying to subscribe, I am getting this message from Paypal:
    "Please provide an amount and click Update Totals."
    asking the user to put in the unit price. Seems like Paypal does not like the $0.00 unit price.
    I am testing this under the sandbox.

    THanks,

    Try to set Recurring = Yes and Recurring times = 2 this should work.

    Alexander, thanks for answering. Recurring works fine but I am trying to provide a Non-recurring subscription.

    If you will set Recurring times = 2 in product settings, this should work the way you need.
    Not recurring products can't have Trials.

    oh non-recurring can't have trial?
    I didn't know that.
    THanks for clearing that up.
