Read case studyFrequently asked questions
What is a recurring payment? What is an example of a recurring payment?
Recurring payments refer to a subscription model of billing where consumers pay for a product or service in defined intervals (e.g., monthly or yearly). Recurly offers the most popular global payment options to make global recurring payments easy and efficient.
What are the intervals of recurring payments?
Recurring payments may be scheduled for any interval, such as daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly.
How do I set up a recurring payment?
A customer provides a business with a payment method (e.g., credit card, Apple Pay, ACH) for the business to use to process each recurring payment.
What is the difference between a one-time payment and a recurring payment?
While a recurring payment is one that automatically recurs on a defined time interval), a one-time payment does not recur unless initiated by the customer or business.
What is the difference between autopay and recurring payments?
A recurring payment is a scheduled payment transaction made for a specific amount at a specific interval (i.e., $9.99 per month). Autopay refers to the permission a customer gives a business to automatically debit their payment method for the account balance when an invoice is issued.
