| More Examples | Description | Monthly=4 | Charge the product price for 4 additional months. | Yearly=1 | Charge the product price for 1 additional year. | Monthly=-1 | Charge the product price FOREVER until removed.
Please note that some merchant account agreements may prohibit recurring charges that do not have a defined termination date. | Monthly=-1=4.95 | Same as above, except that it will charge 4.95 for the additional months rather than the original listed price. | 42-Daily=-1 | Repeat the billing cycle every 42 days. | 30-Daily=-1=Cancel(2)=Single=Product | Shipping a new product every 30 days. Only 1 failure is recorded... when they fix their billing the product will ship and the Next Billing Date will reset. |
