# 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

### Request Parameters

`amount` *mandatory*
: `integer` Amount in currency subunits. For cards, the minimum value is `100` (1).

`currency` *mandatory*
: `string` The 3-letter ISO currency code for the payment. Currently, we only support `INR`.

`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 Scottyâ€`.

`notification`
: `object` Details of the pre-debit notification. This object is optional. You should use it only if you want to control pre-debit notifications and debits. If you do not pass this object, we will automatically try to debit 25 hours after the pre-debit notification is delivered.

<Warning>
  **Watch Out!**

  We will not attempt any retry if the debit fails for tokens with the notification object in the created order. You should manually retry the debit attempt.

  `token_id` *mandatory*
  : `string` The `token_id` generated when the customer successfully completes the authorisation payment. Different payment instruments for the same customer have different `token_id`.

  `payment_after` *optional*
  : `integer` UNIX timestamp post which the debit is supposed to happen. Defaults to 25 hours after the pre-debit notification is delivered.

  `payment_capture` *mandatory*
  : `boolean` Determines whether the payment status should be changed to `captured` automatically or not. Possible values:

  * `true`: Payments are captured automatically.
  * `false`: Payments are not captured automatically. You can manually capture payments using the [Manually Capture Payments API](/api/payments#capture-a-payment).
</Warning>

## 3.2. Create a Recurring Payment

Once you have generated an `order_id`, use it with the `token_id` to create a payment and charge the customer. The following endpoint creates a payment to charge the customer.

/payments/create/recurring

<Info>
  **UPI Payments**
</Info>

* We recommend sending a pre-debit notification to the customer 48 hours before the debit date.
* For UPI, it may take between 24-36 hours for the subsequent payment to reflect on your Dashboard.
* This is because of the failure of pre-debit notification and/or any retries that we attempt for the payment.
* Do not create another subsequent payment until you get the status of the previous one.

<Warning>
  **UPI Payments**

  * The subsequent payment may fail if there is late authorisation of an earlier payment.
  * For UPI, **do not** create subsequent payments on the last day of the cycle. This will cause the payment to fail.
</Warning>
