# Subscriptions APIs now support PayPal Express

We have added a new payment method type, CustomerPaypalBillingAgreement, to the 2021-07 release candidate that allows the ability to store Paypal Billing Agreements in Shopify to be used by [SubscriptionContracts](https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/graphql/reference/orders/subscriptioncontract).

This change also introduces two new mutations. One to create a PayPal billing agreement for a customer, and one to update existing agreements. For more information on the new mutations, visit our documentation on [customerPaymentMethodPaypalBillingAgreementCreate](https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/graphql/reference/customers/customerpaymentmethodpaypalbillingagreementcreate) and [customerPaymentMethodPaypalBillingAgreementUpdate](https://shopify.dev/docs/admin-api/graphql/reference/customers/customerpaymentmethodpaypalbillingagreementupdate)
