Manage Autopays in the UI
Learn how to set up and manage recurring payments in the Payabli UI
Autopays, also known as subscriptions, are recurring payments that allow you to charge your customers at a scheduled interval. This guide explains how to set up and manage autopays in the Payabli UI.
To access the Autopays screen, navigate to Money In > Reports > Autopays. This action opens the Autopays view. This is where you can locate and manage all recurring payments to your organization. You can also apply filters to narrow the scope of your autopays view.
For each autopay record, you can:
- View autopay details
- Edit autopay settings
- Pause autopay
- Cancel autopay
- Continue a paused autopay
To see all options for managing an individual autopay, click the three-dot icon in the Actions column.
Create an autopay
You can’t create autopays from the Autopays screen. To do that, find the target customer record and create it from there. To create a new autopay from the UI, follow these steps:
- Navigate to Money In > Customers.

- Select Create autopay to open the Create Autopay panel.
- Specify the operation type (Sale or Authorize or “Capture Later”).

- (Optional) Enter an invoice number.
- Specify the start date, end date, and frequency of the autopay.
- Enter the customer’s payment information. You can select a stored payment method, or enter new payment information. To store the payment method, select Save payment details for future use.
