# Create frequent payment

`POST /frequent`

Frequent payments are repeatable transactions of varying sums without the client having to enter their payment details again.

It is possible to limit the transferred sums by choosing minimum or maximum values, either to the total sum of the transactions or each individual transaction.

Supported methods for frequent payments are: <i style="color:red">Credit Card, MB WAY, Multibanco, Direct Debit</i> and <i style="color:red">Virtual IBAN</i>


**Required scope:** <code style="background:#e8f0fe;color:#1a73e8;padding:2px 8px;border-radius:12px;font-size:0.85em">frequent:create</code>
