Feature request
Automatic (withdrawal) listing payments (set per time period).

Currently users (sellers) pay for their listing once uploading and when republishing. The problem (where we need a solution for): Republishing needs to happen manually...

Wouldn't it be possible to create a system like any-other platform, to have the monthly (or other chosen time period) fee automatically withdrawn from the user? We understand that this would require more collaboration/integration with the payment providers. However, this would be an amazing feature to gain more revenue from sellers/users.

I am curious to know if someone has been able to already enable such as system where the fee is automatically withdrawn from the users after the first time period of the listing has passed? (I understand that there is also some extra legal work that needs to be applied).

Please let me know if someone could help me out (adjust the code) or if Osclasspoint is willing to improve this feature for there users.

No plans now even in future.
Too complicated and unfriendly.

I have checked Stripe (see video)
https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/overview

I don't get the answer

Using credits is very 'old school' to my opinion.

Stripe is one of the most used systems worldwide and accepts a lot of different payment methods.

Love to hear from more Osclass users their need for such a feature (since we all are operating websites that are designed to generate revenue for us)

(again I am not a coder, but i spoke to a coder (who is not familiar with Osclass) but mentioned that with Stripe's guide this should be easy to implement)

Would it be possible to give this a go? Or could it be custom created?

Many gateways - and many payment methods in gateways does not support recurring payments.
Recurring payments significantly overcomplicate plugin.
Users (either me) does not like to sign subscription that will withdraw money automatically (anytime I do it, I feel like I am going to get cheated :D)
I've also not noticed interest in such feature.

What would custom development cost?

Or would this possible through the API plugin? Please help me out. For us it is interesting. I do get that you might not be a fan of it, but it is industry specific.

you would need to redesign way how plugin works. Cannot use api or anything else.
