Where a PayPal subscription is set for a specific amount to be paid on the same day each month, a PayPal Billing Agreement will automatically pay each invoice on your account on the day it&#8217;s due without you having to worry about it.  If you want to read more about the difference between a PayPal Subscription and a PayPal Billing Agreement you can read our informative post <a href=\"https:\/\/ioflood.com\/blog\/paypal-what-is-the-difference-between-a-subscription-and-a-billing-agreement\/\">here<\/a>.  <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The best part is,\u00a0 it only takes a few minutes to do following these simple step by step instructions!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator aligncenter is-style-wide\"\/>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>First of all, you will need to go to the IOFlood account management portal and log into your IOFlood account by putting in your username and password, just like our friend Max here did.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To login to our billing portal, you&#8217;ll need the username and password that was emailed to you when you first signed up.\u00a0 Your username is your Client ID.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you don&#8217;t remember your password, please contact our support desk and we can have our system send a password reset to the email address on file for your account.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure
