I have a site where I offer free ads, but charge businesses for business listings.

If a business wants to advertise, the rate is 8.00 per 30 day period. My issue is in the template there is a drop down for the ad duration with 15 days, 3 days, 7 days, etc. I know how to limit the ads to just default to 30 days and give them no selection, forcing them to the 30 day period.

My question is, after the 30 days, are they automatically debited (via paypal) for the 8.00, or do they get a reminder when their ad expires?
I am currently testing the product and I have my listing set to 3 days, I just do not want to wait.

I would like to see an option in the category so I can set the price by date, so maybe I can say 8.00 for 1 month or $40 for a 6 month ad, giving them price breaks.
