I know theres a paypal donate mod, but is there such a thing as a paypal subscription mod?

Basically this is what i was looking at:

I setup a feature on my forum that only vip members can get, so members have to upgrade to 'VIP'
they click on the buy now or subscribe & pay via paypal & they automatically get put into the vip group.
The payments come from their paypal account every month/year & they remain in that group.
However if they cancel their paypal subscription, they automatically get put back into the normal member group?

is there such a mod like this?

To cut a long story short, is there a paypal subscricption mod, not just a donate mod?

That's built in to VB. If you look in your AdminCP you'll see paid subscriptions. From there you can use a variety of payment methods, and set up permissions etc.

Yes, i know i can set up subscription payments that way, but how do i put it on my board?
how do i get it noticable?
how do members know about it?

or just add an icon (small gif) that directs members to your subscription page.
The icon can be a flashy image etc to draw members attention that you have subscriptions available

a lot can be learned about the Paid Subscriptions (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/subscriptions) feature by reading the vBulletin Manual (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/subscriptions)


how you promote it is up to you...

- you can create a separate page comparing subscriptions (membership)
- you can add a link to Upgrade Membership within your signature, footer, navbar, email notifications, etc
