# Recurring Payment

```
POST 
/payments/:sequenceId/recurring
```

Creates a subsequent charge using the payment details from a previous transaction.

This endpoint enables recurring billing and subscription payments by:

* Using the same payment method as the original payment
* Charging the customer without requiring them to re-enter payment details
* Supporting variable or fixed amounts (defaults to the original payment amount if not specified)

**Prerequisites:**

1. The initial payment must be created with the `sequence` parameter
2. The initial payment will return a `sequenceId` in the response
3. This `sequenceId` must be provided in the URL path when making subsequent recurring charges

Ideal for subscription services, membership renewals, and installment payments.

**Need more advanced subscription management?** For comprehensive subscription management with features like billing cycles, trial periods, and automatic recurring billing, consider using the [Subscriptions API](https://docs.monei.com/apis/rest/subscriptions/) instead. It provides a complete solution for creating and managing subscription-based services.
