Payment plans overview

Important: Our solution for repeat payments is very flexible and uses the Payment Plans, Secure Tokens, and Subscriptions endpoints. To help you understand how it works, we recommend that you go to Repeat Payments.

Use our Payment Plans endpoints to create payment schedules that you can later assign customers to using our Subscriptions endpoints. A payment plan includes information about:

• How often our gateway collects a payment.
• How many payments our gateway collects.
• How much our gateway collects for each payment.

When you create a payment plan, you generate and include a paymentPlanId that you use to complete follow-on actions:

• Retrieve the payment plan - View the details of a payment plan. If you don’t have the paymentPlanId you can use our List Payment Plans method.
• Update the payment plan - Update the details of a payment plan, including the frequency or amount.
• Delete the payment plan - Delete the payment plan.

After you create the payment plan, use the Subscriptions endpoint to assign customers to the payment plan.
