Can I Use A Certificate Instead Of A Signature?

You can also use a PayPal API Certificate instead of a Signature. This requires a little more work as your need to download the certificate, then FTP is on to your server above the web root and then specify the absolute path of the certificate in SubscriptionBoss settings For example: the path might be /home/myaccount/mycert.pem
