Recurring Payments allow you to set a cadence of scheduled payments toward a client's recurring invoice. For help creating a recurring invoice, click here.
Please Note: If you sign up with Canopy Payments under an Individual entity, you are not able to save client payment information. Therefore, the recurring payments feature will not be available to those users.
- To set up recurring payments, you must be enrolled in Canopy Payments.
- The recurring payments toggle cannot be activated until a Client Name has been assigned to the invoice.
- Time Entries cannot be added to invoices that have recurring payments active.
- Surcharging is not available for recurring payments. You still assume all fees for these payments.

You must have a Recurring Invoice set up to apply the payment to.
3. Select Recurring payment from the Payment type dropdown.
4. Choose a recurring invoice in the Select recurring series box.
