Recurring collections
Collect memberships, rent, retainers and other recurring charges through your own Payfast merchant account. Your customer approves the amount and schedule before entering card details on Payfast.
Sign in to your private cloud account
Your local business login and cloud account are separate. Activate your cloud account first if needed. This page never saves your password or cloud token in browser storage.
Register this branch
Collections belong to this cloud account and the currently selected business and branch. A different owner account gets a separate namespace.
New recurring schedule
An active signed Medium or Large subscription is required. The local five-day trial does not authorise server collections. Existing receipts and cancellation remain available after a plan expires.
The first payment is charged at checkout. The same amount then repeats monthly or annually from the next collection date until cancelled. Terms and amounts are fixed after saving; changes require a new customer-approved schedule.
Customer consent link
Share this private link with the named customer. It expires after seven days and cannot restart an already submitted checkout.
Schedules
Scheduled charges
These are planned collection amounts, not an assertion of debt owed or a tax invoice. Skipping a collection leaves its planned entry for review; no automatic arrears charge is initiated here.
Confirmed Payfast receipts
These receipts confirm money received by Payfast. Fees, refunds and bank payouts must be reconciled against Payfast’s merchant statement. This ledger does not post into your local debtor accounts or mark service contracts active.
