# Subscriptions managed by Payrexx

## Requirements

To receive recurring payments with Payrexx, you need to activate a payment provider that supports this functionality. The feature matrix shows which payment providers offer this functionality:

{% content-ref url="/pages/-M\_5q7zPuSWKL65zOh5k" %}
[Payment Provider Feature Matrix](/merchant/english/payment-provider/psp-features.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

We recommend Swiss merchants set up the payment provider [Payrexx Pay](/merchant/english/payment-provider/payrexx-pay.md). For merchants in the [European region](/merchant/english/payment-provider/country-availability.md), we recommend using [Payrexx Pay Plus](/merchant/english/payment-provider/payrexx-pay.md).

## Usage

Once you have set up a subscription-enabled payment provider, you can offer recurring payments through [Payrexx tools](/merchant/english/account/tools.md), the [Payrexx API](/merchant/english/account/api-and-plugins.md), or via your own integration.

You can use the subscription feature within the following three Payrexx tools. Click on the respective tool to find out how you can set up subscriptions:

<table data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden></th><th data-hidden data-card-target data-type="content-ref"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Pages</strong></td><td>The quick and convenient solution for your products</td><td></td><td><a href="/pages/nDVsyGUlpDi7sH4zc6bP">/pages/nDVsyGUlpDi7sH4zc6bP</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Paylink</strong></td><td>Ideal to create personalized payment requests</td><td></td><td><a href="/pages/w7n1YPvoEQakvflS0UCo">/pages/w7n1YPvoEQakvflS0UCo</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Donation</strong></td><td>The perfect tool for your own donation campaign</td><td></td><td><a href="/pages/3XLwHuErSit6NAxX8gxs">/pages/3XLwHuErSit6NAxX8gxs</a></td></tr></tbody></table>

## Subscriptions from the Customer's Perspective

### Creating a Subscription

On the Payrexx payment page – using a [Pages](/merchant/english/account/tools/pages/pages-subscriptions.md) shop as an example – the customer completes the following steps to activate a subscription:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/rAtPchCLd60KYUkBAple" alt=""><figcaption><p>Creating a subscription from the customer’s perspective</p></figcaption></figure></div>

1. **Product:** If multiple subscription options are available, the customer selects the preferred version.
2. **Address Information:** The customer enters their address and contact details.
3. **Payment Details:** The customer selects the preferred payment method and enters the required payment information.
4. **Payment:** By clicking the green button, the payment process is initiated.

A payment confirmation is then displayed on the screen:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/vn20iIprrTxNzhnjenu7" alt=""><figcaption><p>On-screen confirmation of successful payment</p></figcaption></figure></div>

The customer also receives a confirmation email summarizing the key details of the subscription:
