When a customer registers on your website, use the Subscribe API to create an Account object. The Account object defines your customer’s account, that is, it encapsulates the data members and methods that enable you to populate and maintain a customer’s account information. Before someone can successfully order a product from you and be billed for it, an Account object that represents that person’s account with you must exist in Subscribe. You may create an Account object independently, or while creating an AutoBill object for a one-time transaction or recurring billing. Note: If you create an AutoBill and specify an Account that does not yet exist, Subscribe will create the Account, and attach it to the AutoBill. Use of the forward slash character (/) in identifiers is not allowed. See Merchant Identifiers for more information.
