WooCommerce: Set up subscriptions
Explore how Mollie supports recurring payments for regular billing.
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 WooCommerce subscriptions module
Mollie supports subscriptions through WooCommerce's own built-in subscriptions module.
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:
- Apple Pay
- Bancontact
- Belfius pay button
- Credit/debit cards
- EPS
- iDEAL
- KBC payment button
Supported WooCommerce Subscriptions features
Mollie supports these features offered by WooCommerce Subscriptions:
- Synchronise renewals
- Retry failed payments
- Suspend, switch, cancel and reactivate subscriptions
- Manage multiple subscriptions and recurring total charges
- Change the payment date or method (merchants only)
- Change the address for one or all subscription
- Resubscribe
- Enable automatic or early renewals and set next payment date
Customers can also change the payment method but only when they make a manual payment and any of these circumstances apply:

Customers cannot change the payment method for an entire subscription. To use a different payment method, they must cancel the current subscription and re-subscribe at the end of the term.
