<h4>Why ReCurr?</h4>

<ul>
<li>PayFast tokenisation for secure recurring payments</li>

<h4>About this plugin</h4>
<p>This plugin provides annual subscription billing only. It is fully functional with no licence required, no time limits, and no usage restrictions. A separate, more advanced subscription plugin is sold by the same developer at https://recurr.co.za — it is not bundled with, downloadable from, or required by this plugin.</p>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>WordPress 5.8 or higher</li>
<li>WooCommerce 5.0 or higher</li>
<li>PHP 7.4 or higher</li>
<li>SSL certificate (HTTPS) — required for PayFast</li>
<li>PayFast Merchant Account with tokenisation enabled</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
<p>ReCurr does NOT collect any usage data, telemetry, or analytics. The plugin makes no outbound calls to any server other than PayFast (for processing payments) and your own WordPress site. No data is shared with the plugin author.</p>
<p>PayFast itself is a third-party payment service. When customers complete a subscription purchase, their card is tokenised by PayFast and the token is stored in your database for future renewals. See PayFast’s privacy policy at https://payfast.io/privacy-policy/ for details on how PayFast handles cardholder data.</p>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to one external service: <strong>PayFast</strong>, the South African payment gateway. PayFast is required — the plugin cannot process subscription payments without it, and this processing cannot be performed locally. You must have your own PayFast merchant account to use this plugin.</p>
<p>The plugin contacts PayFast in three ways:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p><strong>Hosted checkout (https://www.payfast.co.za/eng/process, sandbox: https://sandbox.payfast.co.za/eng/process).</strong> When a customer places a subscription order, the customer is redirected to PayFast to enter and tokenise their card. The data sent is the order amount, a signed request signature, the customer’s billing first name, last name and email address, the order ID, the item name, and your PayFast merchant ID/key. This happens once per signup, at checkout.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Instant Transaction Notification validation (https://www.payfast.co.za/eng/query/validate, sandbox: https://sandbox.payfast.co.za/eng/query/validate).</strong> When PayFast notifies your site of a payment result, the plugin posts the received notification back to PayFast to confirm it is genuine. The data sent is the exact notification payload PayFast sent. This happens once per payment event (signup and each renewal).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Ad Hoc charge API (https://api.payfast.co.za/subscriptions).</strong> On each annual renewal, the plugin charges the stored card token. The data sent is the renewal amount, item name, your merchant ID, a timestamp, and a signed request signature. This happens once per subscription per year (on renewal).</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>No data is sent to the plugin author or any analytics/telemetry service. PayFast’s general terms and conditions: https://payfast.io/legal/general-terms-conditions/ — PayFast’s privacy policy: https://payfast.io/privacy-policy/</p>
