Create and charge subsequent payments using Razorpay APIs after the customer's selected payment method is successfully authorized.
You should perform the following steps to create and charge your customer subsequent payments:
You have to create a new order every time you want to charge your customers. This order is different from the one created during the authorisation transaction.
Handy Tips
You can use the notification object in the request if you want to control pre-debit notifications and recurring debits.
The following endpoint creates an order.
