# Standing instruction — auto debit

> AUTO DEBIT standing instructions — scheduled FIXED debits after PayCollect mandate registration on hosted checkout.

<span className="payments-v2-page hidden" aria-hidden="true" />

## AUTO DEBIT standing instructions

**AUTO DEBIT** standing instructions automatically process subsequent debits based on the configured schedule after successful mandate registration.

Registration uses the same PayCollect initiate endpoint as [GPI](/api-reference/payments-v2/paycollect/gpi) with a `standingInstruction` block. The customer completes mandate setup on the **hosted checkout** page.

### Key points

* Register the mandate using the **Initiate API** with **`startDate`** and a scheduled **`frequency`** such as `WEEKLY`, `BIWEEKLY`, `MONTHLY`, `QUARTERLY`, `HALFYEARLY`, or `YEARLY` (not `ONDEMAND`).
* After successful registration, subsequent debit transactions are **automatically initiated** according to the configured schedule.
* **No [SI sale API](/api-reference/standing-instructions/si-subsequent-payment) calls** are required for subsequent debit transactions.
* The amount for subsequent debits must be **`FIXED`**.

<Warning>
  When **Auto Debit** is enabled for your MID, `ONDEMAND` frequency and `VARIABLE` type are not supported.
</Warning>

## Supported payment methods

| Method | Domestic | International |
| ------ | :------: | :-----------: |
| Cards  |     —    |       ✓       |

Standing instruction registration on hosted checkout supports **international cards** only. UPI, net banking, and domestic-only methods are not supported for SI.

## Notes

* Do **not** send **`cardData`** or **`tokenData`** — the customer registers the mandate on the PayGlocal hosted page.
