# Why cannot I just charge my customer every month without subscriptions?

You can charge the customer every month but he/she has to pay every time. What if they forget and your job is to keep following up for collections. Subscription products like Paperr.io help you automatically charge your customers every month. You need not follow up for payments for a standard plan.
