# Scheduled Payments

> Create future-dated scheduled payments using the Yapily Open Banking API. Learn how to set payment execution dates, manage consents, and handle status updates.

## Introduction

Scheduled payments are payments that the user can instruct an `Institution` to perform to an entity at a future date.

It's possible to create either domestic or international scheduled payments provided that the `Institution` supports the following features in the `feature` array:

* `CREATE_DOMESTIC_SCHEDULED_PAYMENT`
* `CREATE_INTERNATIONAL_SCHEDULED_PAYMENT`

<Info>
  Open Banking only provides the means to send the payment initiation request to the `Institution` so, it is not possible to modify or cancel a scheduled through Open Banking, nor is it mandatory for banks to provide confirmation whether the payment amount was successfully credited to the creditor's account.
</Info>

## Domestic Scheduled Payments

A scheduled payment can be created by specifying all the mandatory properties of a [Single Payment](/payments/single-payments) along with the following [paymentRequest](/api-reference/authorisations/create-payment-authorisation) properties:

* `paymentDateTime` (mandatory) - Specify the date of the future-dated payment

## International Scheduled Payments

While rarely supported by every `Institution`, if the `CREATE_INTERNATIONAL_SCHEDULED_PAYMENT` feature is available, it is possible to make international scheduled payments.

In addition to the properties required for a domestic scheduled payment, you must specify the additional properties required for an [international payment](/payments/single-payments#international-single-payments).
