Create a Subscription

Make sure you have your Merchant Configured on Portal with:
Payment Processor configured and an API Key in the header
Also make sure to have a ‘Recurring Strategy’ set on the portal with time and processor

Make 1 API call to set the recurring payment, user and payment method
Use API: {{Api Root}}/api/Customers

For the {{Api Root}} variable:

Production:

https://api.revolv3.com>

Sandbox:

https://api-sandbox.revolv3.com

This is a POST request with a sample payload below. This call is also in the API docs. Additional calls around payments can also be found in the docs. Note Billing, Shipping and Tax Address are left empty here, but you can add those from the docs.

It’s possible, but optional to create a customerId first. You can use the same API call as above with empty place holders to get a customerId
{{Api Root}}/api/Customers

{
    "FirstName": "Joe",
    "LastName": "Smith",
    "MerchantCustomerRefId": "",
    "EntityUseCode": "",
    "BillingAddresses": [],
    "ShippingAddresses": [],
    "Subscriptions": []
}

Repsonse:

{
    "customerId": 95,
    "merchantCustomerRefId": null,
    "firstName": "Joe",
    "lastName": "Smith",
    "entityUseCode": "",
    "billingAddresses": [],
    "shippingAddresses": [],
    "taxAddresses": [],
    "subscriptions": []
}
