Payment Flows Made Reliable — Build payment flows that get you and your customers paid more often. Pay Theory’s Recurring Payments infrastructure powers your subscription, payment plan, and card-on-file payments.
Talk with SalesStart BuildingThe data shows some people want to manage their cash flow while others don’t have the funds for a lump sum payment. Both of these constraints can cut families off from access to services they may really need. In addition, service providers have a harder time collecting payments. Pay Theory’s Recurring Payments lower the barrier to access.
Recurring payment structures like payment plans, payment-method-on-file, and subscriptions help users manage their cash flow while allowing them access to vitally important products and services.

Build payment flows that get you and your customers paid more often. PayTheory’s Recurring Payments infrastructure powers your subscription, payment plan, and card-on-file payments.
Get StartedStart BuildingA Payment Plan is a given dollar amount, say $100.00, that is broken down into a number of payments such that the $100.00 balance is reduced with each payment. A Payment Plan has a set number of payments and a set end point in time.
A Subscription is an open ended payment schedule for a set amount of money remitted to the merchant on a set schedule, say monthly.
Recurring payments are best set up programmatically as the user interface for setting up the recurring payment is usually through an existing software platform. When a recurring payment is set up, it can be viewed and managed through the Pay Theory portal or programmatically via the Pay Theory API. For more information you can view our recurring payments documentation.
There are no additional costs associated with using recurring payments.
If a payment method is expiring any time in the coming 2 months, it will be flagged to the merchant and to the payor. They will be reminded a number of times before the expiration date via emails from Pay Theory. If the account is then closed or suspended, the next payment will fail and the subscription or payment plan will be suspended until the account returns to good standing either by updating the payment method or changing it.
