I am creating an iPhone app, Where I need to use PayPal framework for billing the user for purchasing some kind of service. But I need the bill the user on monthly basis. Is there any option to enable recurring payment option in the framework?

If you need to use PayPal, you'll likely have to roll your own solution using PayPal's APIs and a UIWebView and HTML/Javascript/etc...

The PayPal Developer Network docs has lots of information, including code examples.

You'll likely have a better time using Apple's own StoreKit API, which includes support for recurring subscriptions.

I recommend to use In-App Purchase because your app would be rejected if you're using something other than In-App Purchases!

Since The Daily Apple doesn't want to let user buy additional content without using iTunes (In-App Purchase). I know here are many German News having problems with this, because they are only give the content if buy them on it's website.

I found that in native in app payment from a iPhone App or Android App, there is no direct recurring payment option. But we have a method of payment called Preapproval payment by which we can achieve the same goal.
