# 3. Create Subsequent Payments

> Create and charge subsequent payments using Razorpay APIs after the customer's selected payment method is successfully authorized.

You should perform the following steps to create and charge your customer subsequent payments:

1. [Create an order to charge the customer](#3-1-create-an-order-to-charge-the-customer)
2. [Create a recurring payment](#3-2-create-a-recurring-payment)

## 3.1. Create an Order to Charge the Customer

You have to create a new order every time you want to charge your customers. This order is different from the one created during the authorisation transaction.

The following endpoint creates an order.

`POST /orders`

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Curl theme={null}
  curl -u [YOUR_KEY_ID]:[YOUR_KEY_SECRET] \
  -X POST https://api.razorpay.com/v1/orders \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "amount":1000,
    "currency":"MYR",
    "payment_capture": true,
    "receipt":"Receipt No. 1",
    "notes": {
      "notes_key_1":"Tea, Earl Grey, Hot",
      "notes_key_2":"Tea, Earl Grey… decaf."
    }
  }'
  ```

  ```java Java theme={null}

  JSONObject notes = new JSONObject();
  notes.put("notes_key_1","Tea, Earl Grey, Hot");
  notes.put("notes_key_2","Tea, Earl Grey… decaf.");
  orderRequest.put("notes", notes);

  Order order = razorpay.orders.create(orderRequest);
  ```

  ```php PHP theme={null}

`POST /payments/create/recurring`
