If you're looking to offer payment plans for your courses, monthly subscriptions, or yearly memberships, our Recurring Payment Page feature should do just the trick!
Important First Step: Stripe SettingsLogin to your Stripe account
Go to Settings >> Subscriptions and emails
Find the "Manage failed payments" section
For "Retry schedule" click the radio button to "Use Smart Retries"
For "Customer emails" toggle ON the "Send emails when card payments fail"
For "Subscription status" set the dropdown to "mark the subscription as unpaid"
These settings will help ensure that we can recover failed payments during a recurring payment subscription for you. 
Create a Recurring Payment Page (Monthly or Annual Payments)Select a Teachery course you want to edit and click on it
From the sidebar, click Payment Pages and then + Add Payment Page
In the Payment Type dropdown menu, Select Recurring Monthly* or Recurring Yearly
Set your monthly/yearly price and select the number of months/years**
Once created, you can customize the Recurring Payment Page to your liking! 
Multiple Payment Options on ONE Payment PageLet's say you have a course with two payment options:
$200 1-time ("Fixed") payment
$20 monthly for 12 months ("Monthly Recurring") payment
The first thing you'll want to do is create EACH payment page separately. Name the pages, set the price, and customize the pages to your liking.
boxesToggle ON the Add Payment Option + button, then check the boxes for the payment options you want to be displayed on the payment page.
That's it! Now, you can share your payment page and your customer will see multiple options they can choose between

How we help you handle failed recurring payments...We have good news and bad news.
Bad news: You will almost always encounter failed payments when selling anything with recurring payments. It's just the nature of the beast. We're sorry to break this to you.
Good news! The good news is, we have you covered!
When you create your first recurring payment page, you will find a new email you can customize within your course editor:
Click on the course to edit it
Look in the left sidebar for "Course Emails" section
Click the Recurring Payment Failed email
You can customize that email, including the subject line, from name, from email, logo, email colors, and content.
When the first recurring payment fails, your recurring payment failed email will be sent to your customer.
If they do not take action, another TWO emails (same exact emails) will be sent on a varying schedule (this schedule is determined by Stripe).
If your customer updates their billing information at any time, no more failed payment emails will be sent and they will be good to go!
Should your customer NOT update their billing information after the 3rd email, we will roadblock course access from the student on your behalf. This means if they try to log in to the course, they will only see the billing update page (no matter what page of your course they try to view).
If your customer never updates their billing information, they will continue to be locked out of your course forever (until they add billing info again).
Pro-tip: If you're using a recurring payment option, we recommend creating a spreadsheet of your own that you update on the schedule in which your payments get requested (monthly, annually, etc). This is a tedious task, but it's also the best way to ensure you're keeping an eye on your customer's payment activity.
Here's an abridged version of our other help doc on Revoking Access, etc. These are actions you can take in a Customer's Profile (found by clicking a customer record on the Customers page).
By clicking this link you will be removing a customer's access to your course. This will NOT refund any existing payments and will NOT cancel any recurring payment subscriptions your customer might have. This CAN be undone by clicking Grant Access (which appears only after you Revoke Access).
You can refund a single payment OR you'll see individual payments for recurring payment purchases. You can refund any payments and refunding will NOT result in revoking access to your course. We recommend refunding payments via your Customer Profiles in Teachery instead of within your Stripe account because it keeps the records up to date in Teachery.
If a customer needs to have their subscription payment extended out into the future, you can do that using our Pause Subscription action. You can read more on pausing subscriptions here.
If a customer has purchased your course via a recurring payment page and you want to stop any future payments, use the Cancel Subscription link. This will NOT refund your customer and will NOT revoke access: Their payments will simply come to an end.
If a customer purchases a recurring payment plan, but needs to update their credit card information, we make it really easy. You can find this URL in the "Course Links" section of a course editor (top left of the sidebar). Or, you can simply give your customer the URL of your course with "/billing" added to the end. For example, if your course URL is yourcourse.teachery.co, you would give them yourcourse.teachery.co/billing - that's it!
(If you use a custom domain or custom subdomain, you can give them that URL with /billing on the end.)
