Recurring Payments
A recurring payment is a credentials-on-file (COF) transaction in a series of payments
that you bill to a customer for a fixed amount at regular intervals that do not exceed
one year between transactions. The series of recurring payments is the result of an
agreement between you and the customer for the purchase of goods or services that are
provided at regular intervals.
Mastercard uses standing order and subscription payments instead of recurring payments. See Mastercard Standing Order Payments and Mastercard Subscription Payments.
