A recurring payment is a credentials-on-file (COF) transaction in a series of payments that you bill to a customer at a fixed amount, at regular intervals that do not exceed one year between transactions. The series of recurring payments is the result of an agreement between you and the customer for the purchase of goods or services that are provided at regular intervals.
Mastercard uses standing order and subscription payments instead of recurring payments. See Mastercard Standing Order Payments and Mastercard Subscription Payments.

Recurring Billing Service for Recurring Payments

IMPORTANT
Do not use this document for the Recurring Billing service.
Use the
Recurring Billing Developer Guide
. When you use the Recurring Billing service,
Cybersource
 saves and stores payment credentials for recurring transactions, ensuring compliance with COF best practices.

Using Enrollable Network Tokens

The
Token Management Service
 can enroll certain
network tokens
, known as device tokens, into an instrument identifier token for future payments.
Device tokens
 store and encrypt card-on-file information which enables customers to make quick and easy purchases using their mobile device. When authorizing a credentialed payment with a device token, you must create and store the device token in a
TMS
 instrument identifier token. To do this, include the device token information in the
paymentInformation.tokenizedCard
 fields and set the token creation fields to create an instrument identifier token.
Follow-on merchant-initiated transactions are performed using the created instrument identifier as the payment information. For more information about how to request a merchant-initiated transaction, see Merchant-Initiated Recurring Payments with TMS.
Device tokens are also known as
digital payments
,
digital wallets
, and
tokenized cards
.
