Create Subsequent Payments
3. Create Subsequent Payments
Know how to create and charge your customer the subsequent payments. Subsequent payments can be created only after the token is confirmed.
Once a Token goes to the confirmed state, you can start creating recurring payments for the customer as per your business requirements.
UPI Payments - Important Points
- It may take 24-36 hours for the subsequent payment to reflect on your Razorpay Dashboard. This is because of the failure of pre-debit notification and/or any retries that we attempt for the payment.
- Do not create subsequent payments on the last day of the cycle. This will cause the payment to fail.
To create subsequent payments using the Razorpay Dashboard:
- Search for the token and check its status
After the authorisation transaction is complete, a token is generated. You can use the search feature on the Razorpay Dashboard to find the required token and check its status.
- Charge the token
After you have found the required confirmed token, you can create a charge on it according to your business needs.
Order is Created Automatically
While creating a subsequent charge using the Razorpay Dashboard, Razorpay automatically creates an order for you when you charge a token. There is no need to create an order separately.
To create subsequent payments using APIs:
- Create a new Order
Like any other payment, each subsequent payment is tied to a unique order id. Associating a payment with an order id makes it easier to query Razorpay systems and handle multiple payment attempts and, allows automatic capturing of payments.

- Create a Payment
Once the order is created, you can create a payment for it.
After our system validates the payment along with token_id, a razorpay_payment_id is returned. In some cases, the payment entity returned is in the created state and may take 1 working day for confirmation. Know more about the Create a Recurring Payment API.
