What payment models are available?

Recurring payments (fixed monthly fee), prepaid (term agreement with price guarantee), installments (use today, pay later in 4 instalments), and variable fees (access + variable fee based on usage).

Can I support different payment intervals?

Yes. Define daily, weekly, monthly and custom cycles. Combine intervals within a single product.

Does Zevio support variable invoice amounts?

Yes. Ideal for consumption-based billing such as utilities. Automatic collection after invoice issuance.

Do I need my own mobile app?

No. Use Zevio via QR, email or website. API/SDK available.

Does the user have full control over subscriptions?

Yes. Users see all cycles/history and can pause/resume instantly.

Can I test the system before going live?

Yes. Full access to test environment with API documentation.

Does the transaction fee include the payment gateway cost?

Yes. The percentage charged per transaction is the total cost — it covers both the payment gateway (PSP) fee and the Zevio commission. The gateway adds no extra per-transaction charges. The price includes the payment gateway and one-off payments too.

How do recurring payments differ from subscriptions?

Recurring payments are the charging mechanism. A subscription is the business model (access for a repeating fee) that uses that mechanism. The same recurring mechanism also powers memberships, dues and recurring deliveries.

Which payment methods does Zevio support?

BLIK Recurring, card (with tokenization), and Apple Pay and Google Pay — all wired into a single recurring charging mechanism.

Can you charge variable amounts?

Yes. Zevio supports both fixed fees (the same plan each period) and variable ones — calculated before each charge, e.g. based on usage or the current order.

What happens when a payment fails?

The system automatically retries the failed transaction at optimal intervals and, if needed, asks the customer to update their payment method. This cuts churn caused by payment problems.

What does the rollout look like?

Zevio works alongside your app or store — payment status returns via webhooks, and ready integrations are available for e-commerce. You do not need to build your own billing.

Definition

What are recurring payments?

Recurring payments are charges collected automatically on a fixed cadence — monthly, quarterly or yearly — based on a single, upfront consent from the customer. The customer authorizes the payment once, and the following periods settle on their own, with no manual confirmation of each transaction. It is the foundation of subscriptions, memberships, dues and recurring deliveries.

How it works in Zevio

From the first consent to automatic charging

Four steps — Zevio handles the rest.

1
The customer authorizes once
On the first payment the customer connects BLIK Recurring or a card and consents to future charges.
2
Zevio charges on a cycle
Every following period is billed automatically on the agreed cadence — a fixed or variable amount.
3
Failed payments are retried
The system retries failed transactions and reminds the customer, instead of quietly losing revenue.
4
Everything in one panel
The status of each receivable, charge history and a revenue forecast — in one view, no spreadsheets.

Card tokenization for secure, repeating charges across the following periods.

Revenue recovery

Automatic retries and recovery of failed payments

Smart retries

A failed payment is retried at optimal intervals, matched to the type of decline.
