Adding a grace period

You can set a grace period to allow your customers a little more time if their recurring payment fails. This lets them resubmit payment before their donation is canceled automatically.
Learn how to set up a grace period.

Changing the date customers are charged

By default, subscription renewal dates are determined by the date of the original purchase. For example, if a customer orders a subscription on the 7th of January, a new order is created on the 7th of every month.  
You can change the renewal date so that, for instance, the customer is charged on the 1st of every month. Learn how to change the payment date for your customers' subscriptions.
