FAQ
...
Is the application provider notified when the status of a recurring bill changes?
> No, because the status changes are in the control of the app provider anyway (cancellation, expiration...). However, the app provider can query Recurring bills at any time if needed.
What happens to the Recurring bills when a customer unsubscribes? Does the application provider need to do anything special with the bills?
> Nothing special is expected from the application provider: Maestrano just won't charge the customer any more.
