Executing recurring payments with the REST Api

I need to use recurring payments with PayPal, so for every 30 days I will subtract a payment from the customer.

There is so much information about PayPal that I'm totally lost.

So, there a is way of doing recurring payments with the Rest Api? https://github.com/paypal/rest-api-sdk-python

Best Regards, Andre

I have looked through all of the documentation for PayPal Payments Standard, and found no Rest API Recurring Billing references, unless you use PayPal Vault.

Here is the reference documentation for PayPal Vault:

PayPal Vault Information

There are other ways to setup Recurring Payments with PayPal Payments Standard accounts.
You can use Express Checkout to create Recurring Payments APIs.
Here is a link to the documentation for Express Checkout and recurring payments:
PayPal Express Checkout Recurring Payments

Another option for you is to create a simple subscription button. You can create the button directly in your PayPal Account by going to the Merchant Services Tab, and choosing Create Payment Buttons for your website then choose Subscription. The other option for you is to manually create the subscription button.
Here is the documentation on Creating a Subscription Button:
PayPal Subscription Button Guide

These are the basic options for PayPal Payments Standard.
