I used Paypal Express checkout with NVP solution (simple and recurring payment). You have 2 calls through curl to do ( https://www.x.com/paypal-apis-doexpresscheckoutpayment-php-5.3/nvp) like setexpresscheckout and then doexpresscheckout for a simple payment. (createprofilerecurring.. for reccurring payment) You can handle deferred transaction for recurring payment with IPN (you need to set up the URL in your business account paypal).
