The easiest way to ensure payment from clients is to set up transactions in advance. Scheduled Payments allow you to maximize cash flow by setting up future payments to recur automatically. CPACharge offers a variety of schedule options which are described below.

Weekly

When you select weekly, you must type the number of weeks you would like between recurrences. The "First Charge On" determines which day of the week the charges will recur on. For example if you want the schedule to recur biweekly, type "2" into the week(s) box.

Twice a Month

Select when the first charge will occur by selecting a date from the "First Charge On" date selector. Next, select the second charge date. For example, if you want the schedule to recur on the 15th and the last day of the month, select the 15th from the first date picker, and "Last Day of the Month" from the second.
