Hi,

You need to enter the periods that you want in the recurring period setting of the payment method.
For example: 3,6,9

Ok thanks.

What specifically do the values represent? The number of times a payment recurs? Or, a periods of time, e.g, weeks, months?

Hi,

They represents the period of each installment in month if I remember correctly.
