[DUG-TO] Ubercart and Paypal??

[Владимир Крячко]

Hi, Modya.

I don't see any problem. You can create a product named Subscription
or whatever and when a person checks out Ubercart will send the order
to PayPal as a CART and there will be an option to pay without logging
in. So I don't think you need any PayPal buttons.
