Subscription
In a nutshell
A created subscription link has recurring functionality built into it. The link will allow you to collect payment on a chosen interval and set limit, without having to manage how your customer is billed throughout the cycle.
To create a subscription link that your customers can use to subscribe, you have to do the following:
- Create a plan
- Create a subscription link.

- When you visit the plan route on the spay dashboard, you will see plans that you have created. If you have not created a plan, you will see an empty page
