# How does the customer pay each time?

[Charge a customer again](https://devportal.qa.winkpg.io/docs/decide/charge-a-customer-again.md): Whether repeat payments run on a contract the platform bills, on a schedule of your own, on an invoice, or at your checkout, and what the card networks need from each.

A bill they pay from a link and a checkout they return to are different integrations, even when the card behind them is the same.

**Your answers so far**

- Is the customer there when each payment is taken? Yes. They agree to each payment as it happens.

**Choose one**

- [From a bill we send them.](https://devportal.qa.winkpg.io/docs/decide/charge-a-customer-again/send-an-invoice.md): Line items, a due date, and a record of what they owe.
- [At our checkout, where they pick a card they stored before.](https://devportal.qa.winkpg.io/docs/decide/charge-a-customer-again/offer-the-stored-payment-method-at-checkout.md): A returning customer placing another order.
