Is there any way to set the recurring payments so that there's a free period at the end of a set cycle? for example, i want to have monthly recurring payments for 3 months but I'd like giving 10 free days after the first month resulting in:

05/01 -> 06/01 first month (paid 05/01)

06/01 -> 06/10 free

06/11 -> 07/11 second month (paid 06/11)

07/11 -> 08/11 last month (paid 07/11)

 

Any help with this matter would be highly appreciated.

There's probably not a way to do that from within the button but if you are advanced in coding this stuff then it might be possible:

Scroll down to 'offer a trial period' section.

@sharpiemarker  I've seen the trial period section, however the problem is that if possible I'd like charging for the month, then giving a free period and then go back to the recurring payments. The issue is that I have not found how to set this up because trial period takes place at the beginning and full payment gets done until trial is over.

I don't think there is a way to do that.
