Plan Selection Mode
Determines how payment plans appear when multiple plans match a customer's cart.
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Priority Mode | Only the highest-priority plan is shown. Simple choice between "Pay in Full" or the selected plan. |
| Customer Choice | All matching plans are displayed. Customers choose between available options. |
When to Use Each Mode
Priority Mode is best when:
- You have one main payment plan
- You want a simple checkout experience
- Different plans target different customer segments (they won't overlap)
Customer Choice is best when:
- You offer multiple payment options (e.g., 3-month and 6-month plans)
- You want customers to choose their preferred schedule
- Plans may overlap for the same cart
Gateway Settings

| Test Mode | Toggle between test and live Stripe keys |
| Maximum Payment Retries | Number of retry attempts for failed payments (1-10) |
Payment Retries
When a scheduled payment fails (e.g., expired card, insufficient funds), the system will automatically retry:
- Default: 3 retries
