Accept Subscriptions

Charge recurring USDC on Base with a one-time customer approval, powered by spend permissions — no per-payment prompt, no merchant fees.

Bill on any cycle with recurring USDC. The customer approves a per-period cap once via spend permissions; your backend then charges when payment is due — no prompt each time, no merchant fees. The limit resets every period and the customer can cancel anytime.

Demo

Create the subscription

SubscriptionButton.tsx

import { base } from '@base-org/account';

const subscription = await base.subscription.subscribe({
  recurringCharge: '29.99',
  subscriptionOwner: SUBSCRIPTION_OWNER_ADDRESS, // your app's charging wallet
  periodInDays: 30,
  testnet: false,
});

// Persist subscription.id — your backend uses it to charge each period.
await saveSubscription(subscription.id, subscription.subscriptionPayer);

Charging and cancelling run from your backend with charge() and revoke(), typically against a CDP server wallet. Set a paymasterUrl to make charges gasless.
