Two questions regarding Subscriptions

Hello,

1 - The "subscription_end_date" contains the end date of a subscription.
HikaSerial Subscription uses the HikaShop cron task in order to check when a subscription hasn't be renew before its expiration date.

2 - The best is to authorize non-recurring payment methods so your customer can buy subscription in a "classical way".
Without recurring, the customer would have to manually perform the renewal (which should be made via the customer subscription listing)

Hello,

You have complex questions and it's better to not urge for a fast answer.

1 - You can't, it requires development.

2 - If the renewal is not performed, the subscription expires or is directly closed (depending your settings).

3 - I don't understand what you want...
If you want another recurring payment plugin ; it requires a specific payment plugin which support the HikaShop recurring API.
For your three points, I'm sorry but I don't understand the meaning.

Hello,

Recurring payment implies that the payment gateway support "recurring" feature : The possibility to have automatically a periodic payment for a specif amount of time.

Please understand that if you use a random credit card payment gateway, you won't have such feature.
That's why it's possible with HikaSerial Subscription to use regular payment method to buy subscription and, for such scenario, the customer will have to manually renew its subscription (before or after the expiration date, depending your settings).
To activate the possibility to use regular payment system, you have the enable the setting as mentioned few days ago.

Without recurring, the customer would have to manually perform the renewal (which should be made via the customer subscription listing)
