Recurring Payment

Xendit Recurring Payment enables merchants to receive payments on a periodic basis. It will automatically create payment link based on the period you define. Recurring payments are useful for subscription plans or installment systems, amongst many others.

Each recurring pay can be paid with any payment channel available on the payment link, configured using our payment link UI or integrated with your UI. Recurring payments can also be used to auto charge debit/credit cards so your customer only has to enter their card details once to charge future recurring payments.

Xendit Recurring Payment is free, and can be created directly on the dashboard or via the Recurring Payment API. Please note that if you create a recurring payment via API, it will have a buffer of approximately 10 minutes before the first payment link is created.

You can customize the recurring payment payment links to suit your payment needs, from payment link duration to available payment channels. To customize your payment links, go to Customize Invoice Settings
