https://ift.tt/2OHJ80n <p class="intro">On the WordPress.com Blog, we
<a href="https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2019/11/12/recurring-payments/">recently
announced a new way to make money</a> on your site: <a
href="https://en.support.wordpress.com/recurring-payments-button/">Recurring
Payments</a> that enable ongoing, scheduled contributions. It’s
the latest addition to your <a
href="https://wordpress.com/earn">WordPress.com Earn</a> tools to help
you grow your business or organization, build your community of
supporters and subscribers, and create a regular and reliable income
stream.</p>
<hr />
<h3>Ways to use Recurring Payments</h3>
<p>Available on WordPress.com and Jetpack-powered sites on any paid
plan, the Recurring Payments feature, integrated with <a
href="https://stripe.com/">Stripe</a>, makes it easier for you to:</p>
<ul>
<li>accept <a href="https://myferndalenews.com/supporting-my-ferndale-news/">monthly
donations from supporters</a>, like <em><a
href="https://myferndalenews.com/supporting-my-ferndale-news/">My
Ferndale News</a>, </em>a local news outlet</li>
<li>offer <a href="https://arcaneartists.com/">subscriptions to
support a group</a>, like <a href="https://arcaneartists.com/">Arcane
Artists</a>, which has monthly subscription plans that ultimately help
their community to grow</li>
<li>provide <a href="https://istja.ie/join/">memberships</a> to a
service, club, or organization, like <a
href="https://istja.ie/">ISTJA</a>, an association that represents
working science and tech journalists in Ireland</li>
<li>offer a <a href="https://bazfit.com/services/subscription-plans/">series
of consulting or training sessions</a>, like fitness coach Bartosz at
<a href="https://bazfit.com/"><em>Bazfit</em></a></li>
<li>charge readers for your weekly newsletter</li>
<li>sell access to your magazine’s exclusive content</li>
</ul>
<p>Through this payment system, you can bill supporters automatically,
on a set schedule. Whatever content or service you provide, your
subscribers can cancel anytime from their WordPress.com account.
Here’s a quick look at how professionals and organizations are
using this new feature.</p>
