The shoping cart supports recurring billing by product. Recurring billing is only supported using the Authorize.net gateway. When you setup your product for recurring billing you will need to configure the subscription interval for weekly, monthly or yearly recurring credit card payments. For example, if you choose monthly and the user purchases a product on 1/1/09, the first payment will be automatically billed on 1/1/09 at midnight. Their second payment will be billed on 2/1/09 and so on. Next, configure total occurrences to bill your customer. Enter "12" to bill the customer‟s card 12 times. Enter "9999" to have the recurring billing continue indefinitely.
The following email notifications can be setup with recurring billing:
- Daily Transaction Summary — A daily summary of transactions associated with your subscriptions. This email type includes a CSV file each for successful and failed transactions.
- Failed Transaction Notice — Notification of failed transactions for your ARB subscriptions.
- Subscription Due for Expiration — Notification of upcoming subscription expirations.
