Sylius: Set up subscriptions

Explore how Mollie supports recurring payments for regular billing.

📘

Tip

  • Minimize chargeback risk by clearly communicating the charge amount and frequency to your customers.
  • Ensure customer awareness by sending advance notifications before each payment, for example via email.

Native Sylius subscriptions module

Mollie supports subscriptions through Sylius's own built-in subscriptions module and seamlessly supports subscriptions directly through its integration.

Supported payment methods

Customers who buy a subscription from your shop must use a supported payment method to make their initial payment. This authorizes future subscription payments as well.

  • Credit/Debit cards: If your customer initially pays with a credit/debit card, all subsequent payments will be by credit/debit card as well.
  • Other payment methods: If your customer initially pays with any other payment method, all subsequent payments will be by SEPA Direct Debit.

Your customers can use these payment methods for the initial subscription payment:

  • Bancontact
  • Belfius pay button
  • Credit cards
  • EPS
  • Giropay
  • iDEAL
  • KBC payment button
  • SEPA Direct Debit
  • SOFORT bank transfer
