Skip Payments within a Subscription {#skip-payment}
===================================================

There are two ways that you can stop and restart subscription payments:

* Use the Suspend function to pause subscription payments. You can reactivate payments at any time and choose whether to retry any payments that were missed while the subscription was suspended.
* When the period of skipped payments is known, you can choose the Skip option from the Subscription Details Page. The instructions are below.  
  You can skip a single payment or set of future payments. Follow these steps to skip a payment:

1. In the Business Center, navigate to **Recurring Billing \&gt; Manage Subscriptions**. The Manage Subscriptions page opens.
2. Find the subscription and click the subscription code. The Subscription Details page opens.
3. To Skip a scheduled payment within the subscription, navigate to the scheduled payments and click the **Skip** option next to the date of the payment that you would like skipped. The confirmation window appears.

A skipped payment can be restored by following step 3 and clicking **Restore** instead of skip.
IMPORTANT The payment cannot be added to the list if it is a retry attempt. The payment cannot be added to or removed from the list if it is on the same day as its scheduled processing time.
