I am offering digital download sales to my users, however the purchase money is in holding, is there a way to have it set so that each user gets their money sent directly to their PayPal account minus the necessary deductions automatically?

Please advise.

I would not say not possible and just needs some thinking . May be not possible right now .
The pay out module should be able to pay out automatically.
when I sell downloads as admin the money goes directly to my account . so the payout module needs a code when say $1.00 comes in , the payout module deduct the service fee % then send the remainder to the user's pay pal .
I have to press the payout button so the button press should be programed to have an instruction to do the same thing .
I know JR is smart enough to figure out how to do this

Thanks

Agreed that all things are possible, but what I meant was its not possible with the payments module as its coded at the moment.
The payments module is fairy complex and we have no plans to change its functionality at the moment, but if you would to sponsor this additional feature, let us know and we'll checkout its feasibility.
But it does seem a lot of effort just to save admin pressing a button every month?
Thanks

It is the time I don't have with my schedule and may forget , moreover users would rather have there money immediately rather than waiting

I wouldn't want to trust auto payout with money. The way it works, there's an opportunity for you to make sure all payments are correct before they go out. One decimal error could cause huge problems.

Take a look at the paypal module it might be what you're after:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/104/paypal-buy-it-now

It has the money go directly to the seller, but it does not allow you to take a percentage of the sale.

If the transactions are all recorded, and Admin has access to the information, or an anonymized summary, perhaps the profile owner could be billed monthly or annually according to the total amount, rather than each time.

Setting a minimum threshold for billing for transactions might encourage profile owners to use the system.

Does Paypal itself allow something like this, as an alternative to taking percentages on every transaction?

(Just trying to think of alternatives here...)
