Create a recurring charge

Create a recurring charge with a token provided by Kushki which represents the customer's credit card.

Payment Execution

Kushki processes recurring charges to the registered card automatically. Payments will be executed and repeated according to the amount and period indicated in the subscription.

The billing logic starts running every day from 6am GMT-5. Make sure that the subscription was created before this time if you want the first payment to be executed on the same day of registration. Alternatively, your customer can register his/her card some days in advance, before Kushki executes the first charge. When creating a subscription, you must indicate the start date startDate.

Retries

If a payment is rejected, Kushki has a retry logic to try to recover the charge. By default, there are 3 retries for 3 days in a row from the payment day originally defined in startDate. For example, for a monthly subscription with start date: 10-01-2021, with a rejection on 10-02-2021, payment will be retried until 13-02-2021, 3 times each day, for a total of 9 payment attempts.

You can modify the retry days for a subscription and also define specific charging days.

If the last charge attempt was declined, we may send you a notification via WebHook informing you about it. In these cases, we recommend you to contact the card owner and offer him/her a set of alternatives for paying the fee that could not be charged; for example, changing the registered credit card and generating a charge on demand only for one time. Kushki will continue executing automatic charges over the following periods.

Customize retry logic

You can customize the collection retry logic by submitting the retryConfiguration object as follows:

retryType:"schedule". If you choose schedule, you can specify in the value field you can specify in value how often the collection will be reattempted.
In the next example, the collection will be reattempted 3 times per day every 2 days for the entire month.

{
   "retryConfiguration":{
      "retryType":"schedule",
      "value":[2]
   }
}

retryType:"fixed". Send the specific days of the month to retry. Ex. 10th, 20th, 30th.
In the following example, the charge will only be reattempted 3 times a day, on the 10th, 20th and 30th of the corresponding month.

{
  "retryConfiguration":{
     "retryType":"fixed",
     "value":[10,20,30]
  }
}

Send the retryType as fixed if you do not want to retry collection for the entire month.
If the last charge attempt was declined, we may send you a notification via WebHook informing you about it. In these cases, we recommend you to contact the card owner and offer them a set of alternatives for paying the fee that could not be charged; for example, changing the registered credit card and generating an One-click payment only for one time. Kushki will continue executing automatic charges over the following periods.

Important!
When customizing retries it should be noted that once the first collection is initiated, if it fails and retries are initiated, any updates to retries will be applied until the next subscription period (weekly, monthly, yearly).
