What Are Recurring Crypto Payments?

Automated subscription billing using stablecoins like USDT and USDC.

Recurring crypto payments enable SaaS businesses and subscription services to automatically charge customers in stablecoins on a regular schedule (monthly, quarterly, annually). Unlike traditional recurring billing, crypto subscriptions require explicit approval for each charge.

How It Works

The merchant creates a subscription plan with amount, currency, and frequency. Customers approve the subscription. On each billing date, a payment link is generated and sent to the customer for approval. Some implementations use token approvals for automatic deductions.
