Recurring revenue
Sell subscriptions without stitching billing yourself
Create recurring products in lomi., sell through hosted checkout or payment links, and let lomi. handle renewals, failed payments, and customer status. Your app listens to webhooks or polls the API to grant and revoke access.
What you can do
Checkout and payment links
Customers subscribe when they buy a recurring product; no separate signup API. Trials and first-payment rules follow your product configuration.
Card renewals off-session
When a card is saved at signup, lomi. charges on the billing date and emits SUBSCRIPTION_RENEWED or PAYMENT_FAILED events.
Mobile money renewal links
Wave and MTN flows send customers a hosted renewal link before the due date, aligned with how wallets work in the region.
Dashboard and customer portal
View subscription status, cancel or pause, and let customers manage renewals from the hosted portal where enabled.
What are lomi. subscriptions?
Payment infrastructure for francophone West Africa: hosted checkout, Mobile Money, cards, payouts, subscriptions, and developer APIs across UEMOA. Subscriptions provide recurring billing for SaaS, memberships, and services with renewals and webhooks.
Key facts
- Sell recurring products through hosted checkout or payment links.
- Card renewals can run off-session when a card is saved at signup.
- Mobile money renewals use hosted links aligned with Wave and MTN wallet flows.
Subscriptions vs usage billing
Fixed-interval plans sold through checkout use Subscriptions. Metered consumption (API calls, credits, seats) uses usage billing with meters and usage events.
How to sell subscriptions
- Create a recurring product and price in the dashboard or via API.
- Share hosted checkout or a payment link for the first purchase.
- Grant or revoke access in your app when subscription webhooks fire.
Subscriptions FAQ
Can customers manage subscriptions themselves?
Yes. The hosted customer portal supports pause, cancel, and renewal actions when enabled in your policy.
Usage-based billing?
Metered products (API calls, credits, seats) use a separate usage billing flow with meters and usage events; not the same as recurring checkout subscriptions.
