# Charge First Payment Automatically after NACH Registration

> <Info>

## 1. Create an Authorisation Transaction

<Info>
  **Authorisation transaction + auto-charge first payment**
</Info>

You can register a customer's mandate **AND** charge them the first recurring payment as part of the same transaction. To do this all you have to do is pass the `first_payment_amount` parameter while creating the order.

The flow to complete an authorisation transaction using paper NACH is a little different from the regular recurring payment flow. The flow when using paper NACH is:

1. Create a customer.

2. Create an order by passing the `customer_id` and method `nach`. When you do this, Razorpay generates a NACH form with the customer information pre-filled and ready to sign.

3. The customer signs the form. The customer can obtain the form in one of the following ways:
   * You can download the form from the Dashboard and send it to the customer.
   * Download from the Hosted page (in the case of registration links).

4. The signed form is uploaded to Razorpay. This can be done in one of the following ways:
   * Using custom Checkout page created from Razorpay APIs.
   * Hosted page (in the case of registration links).
   * The customer can send you the form and you can upload the form for the customer. The acceptable image formats and size are:
     * jpeg
     * jpg
     * png
     * Maximum accepted size is 6 MB.

Once the details are validated, the authorisation transaction is completed and a token is generated. You can charge your customer as per your business model once the token status changes to `confirmed`.

You can create an authorisation transaction using [Razorpay APIs](#11-using-razorpay-apis) or [Registration Link](#12-using-a-registration-link).

### 1.1. Using Razorpay APIs

To create an authorisation transaction using Razorpay APIs, you need to:

<Steps>
  <Step title="[Create a Customer](#111-create-a-customer).">
    [Create a Customer](#111-create-a-customer).
  </Step>

  <Step title="[Create an Order](#112-create-an-order).">
    [Create an Order](#112-create-an-order).
  </Step>

  <Step title="[Create Authorisation Payment using Razorpay APIs](#113-create-an-a...">
    [Create Authorisation Payment using Razorpay APIs](#113-create-an-authorisation-payment).
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>
  **Handy Tips**
</Info>

For the Authorisation Payment to be successful in a day (for example, 5th June), you should create an Order and the Authorisation Transaction on the same day (5th June) before 11:59 pm.

### 1.1.1. Create a Customer

Razorpay links recurring tokens to customers using a unique identifier generated through the Customer API.

You can create [customers](/api/customers) with basic information such as `email` and `contact` and use them for various Razorpay offerings. The following endpoint creates a customer.

/customers

### Sample Code

````cURL: Curl theme={null}
curl -u [YOUR_KEY_ID]:[YOUR_KEY_SECRET] \
-X POST https://api.razorpay.com/v1/customers \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

### 1.1.3. Create an Authorisation Payment

Follow these steps to create authorisation transaction:

1. Download the Paper NACH form and send it to the customers.
2. Ask the customers to fill the form and
   * Upload it via the Checkout.
   * Send it to you and you can upload it from the Dashboard.
3. Upload the received form via create NACH File API.

### 1.1.3.1 Upload the NACH File via Checkout

<Info>
  **Handler Function vs Callback URL**
</Info>

* **Handler Function**:

#### Additional Checkout Fields

`customer_id` *mandatory*
: `string` Unique identifier of the customer created in the [first step](#111-create-a-customer).

`order_id` *mandatory*
: `string` Unique identifier of the  order created in the [second step](#112-create-an-order).

`recurring` *mandatory*
: `boolean` Determines whether the recurring is enabled or not. Possible values:

* `true`: Recurring payment is enabled.
* `false`: Recurring payment is not enabled.

### 1.2. Using a Registration Link

Registration Link is an alternate way of creating an authorisation transaction. You can create a registration link using the [API](#121-create-a-registration-link) or [Dashboard](/payments/recurring-payments/create#1-create-a-registration-link).

<Info>
  **Handy Tips**
</Info>

* You do not have to create a customer if you choose the registration link method for creating an authorisation transaction.
* You can [use Webhooks to get notifications about successful payments](/api/payments/recurring-payments/webhooks#check-authorization-link-status-using-webhooks) against a registration link.

When you create a registration link, an [invoice](/payments/invoices) is automatically issued to the customer. They can use this invoice to make the authorisation payment.

A registration link must always have an amount (in paise) that the customer will be charged when making the authorisation payment. In the case of Paper NACH, the order amount must be `0`.

### 1.2.1. Create a Registration Link

Use the below endpoint to create a registration link for recurring payments.

/subscription\_registration/auth\_links

<Info>
  **Download and Upload the Pre-filled NACH Form**
</Info>

Once the registration link is created, the generated pre-filled form must be downloaded, signed by your customer and uploaded back to Razorpay to complete the transaction.
The hosted page has a **Download NACH Form** option from where the customer can download the pre-filled form. Once downloaded, the customer has to sign the form. The signed form can then be uploaded to Razorpay using the **Upload NACH Form** option on the hosted page.

  **Handy Tips**
</Info>

You can also retrieve the `token_id` via the [payment.authorized webhook](/api/payments/recurring-payments/webhooks#payment-authorized).

### Path Parameter

`id` *mandatory*
: `string` The unique identifier of the payment to be retrieved. For example, `pay_1Aa00000000002`.

### 2.2. Fetch Tokens by Customer ID

Use the below endpoint to fetch tokens linked to a customer.

A customer can have multiple tokens tied to them. These tokens can be used to create subsequent payments for multiple products or services.

<Warning>
  **Watch Out!**

  This endpoint will not fetch the details of expired and unused tokens.

  /customers/:id/tokens

  ````curl: Curl theme={null}
  curl -u [YOUR_KEY_ID]:[YOUR_KEY_SECRET] \
  -X GET https://api.razorpay.com/v1/customers/cust_1Aa00000000002/tokens

  ```java: Java
  RazorpayClient razorpay = new RazorpayClient("[YOUR_KEY_ID]", "[YOUR_KEY_SECRET]");

  String customerId = "cust_1Aa00000000004";

  Customer customer = razorpay.customers.fetchTokens(customerId);

  ```php: PHP
  $api = new Api($key_id, $secret);

  $api->customer->fetch($customerId)->tokens()->all();

## 3. Create Subsequent Payments

You should perform the following steps to create and charge your customer subsequent payments:

1. [Create an order to charge the customer](#31-create-an-order-to-charge-the-customer)
2. [Create a recurring payment](#32-create-a-recurring-payment)

### 3.1. Create an Order to Charge the Customer

You have to create a new order every time you want to charge your customers. This order is different from the one created during the authorisation transaction.

The following endpoint creates an order.

/orders

````cURL: Curl theme={null}
curl -u [YOUR_KEY_ID]:[YOUR_KEY_SECRET] \

  "notes": {
    "notes_key_1":"Tea, Earl Grey, Hot",
    "notes_key_2":"Tea, Earl Grey… decaf."
  }
}'

```java: Java
RazorpayClient razorpay = new RazorpayClient("[YOUR_KEY_ID]", "[YOUR_KEY_SECRET]");

JSONObject orderRequest = new JSONObject();
orderRequest.put("amount", 1000);

JSONObject notes = new JSONObject();
notes.put("notes_key_1","Tea, Earl Grey, Hot");
notes.put("notes_key_2","Tea, Earl Grey… decaf.");
orderRequest.put("notes", notes);

Order order = razorpay.orders.create(orderRequest);

```php: PHP
$api = new Api($key_id, $secret);

$api->order->create(array('receipt' => '123', 'amount' => 100, 'payment_capture' => true, 'currency' => 'INR', 'notes'=> array('key1'=> 'value3','key2'=> 'value2')));

### Request Parameters

`amount` *mandatory*
: `integer` Amount in currency subunits.

`currency` *mandatory*
: `string` The 3-letter ISO currency code for the payment.

`receipt` *optional*
: `string` A user-entered unique identifier for the order. For example, `Receipt No. 1`. You should map this parameter to the `order_id` sent by Razorpay.

`notes` *optional*
: `object` Key-value pair you can use to store additional information about the entity. Maximum of 15 key-value pairs, 256 characters each. For example, `"note_key": "Beam me up Scotty”`.
