Regular Payments
Learn how to manage Regular Payments on a customers' accounts.
Overview
The Regular Payments API allows customers to set up a Regular Payment method on their account and then view, edit or delete it once it exists. Currently, only Direct Debit is supported as a Regular Payment method.
Regular Payments Configuration
Accounts can have different regular payment options available to them, these need to be retrieved from GetRegularPaymentsConfiguration. For example, one account may be offered three types of payment options e.g. scheduled payment, fixed payment and full balance. Another account would be offered just two of these. You may want to retrieve these options at the start of a set-up journey so that the user can choose from the configured options available to them to set up their regular payment.
Managing Regular Payments
These endpoints can be used to manage Regular Payments on a customer's account. They will commonly be used in servicing channels such as IVR, mobile and web applications. This allows customers with an existing regular payment the option to manage their regular payment. If a user does not have a regular payment option, this can be used to them to set one up.

- If a regular payment does not exist a customer can be prompted to set one up using the SetupRegularPayment endpoint.
