Recurring payments
Make your e-store more flexible. With recurring payments, you can create a solution where payment for a service or product is automatic. In order to use the service, MasterCard and Visa must be accepted in the e-shop.
Recurring payment
Recurring payment is perfect if you want to collect payments from customers at regular intervals. Payments from the customer’s credit or debit card are made automatically on a specific date, and the customer does not have to go through the entire payment process again each time. Both fixed-amount and merchant-initiated transactions can be made.
We also support recurring payments for Apple Pay and Google Pay, making it even more convenient for customers to pay using their preferred digital wallets.
How do recurring payments work?
Having added a product or service with a recurring payment to your e-shop, the buyer must state that he or she agrees to the recurring payment when making the purchase. Upon successful authorization, the e-shop will return a ‘payment token’, which will allow you to initiate periodic payments.
Please note that MakeCommerce does not initiate payments automatically. In order to make recurring payments, the corresponding command must also come from the merchant’s system (for example, via the WooCommerce Subscriptions plugin).
Secure and worry-free for merchants
To help merchants avoid the complexity and costs associated with PCI DSS certification, sensitive card data never passes through the merchant’s systems. All card details are handled and stored securely within the MakeCommerce infrastructure, in full compliance with industry security standards.
This means merchants can offer card payments and recurring billing with confidence, knowing that customer data is protected and security requirements are fully managed by MakeCommerce.
Service activation
For the user experience to meet expectations and requirements, the recurring payment service must be activated separately. If you want to accept recurring payments in your e-shop, contact our customer service at support@maksekeskus.ee. Acceptance of card payments is a prerequisite for using the service.
At the moment, recurring payments are not available for Shopify, Wix and Voog shops.
