I have data that is passed from one form to a final payment form.
There are 2 data fields
1. Total Charge
2. Subscription charge
I need to user a payment gateway that will allows me to process as follows:
I need to process the total amount plus apply a portion of the total to a monthly subscription.
I have both PayPal and square. How can I accomplish this ?

Please note that a payment field can select only one payment type (eg: charge one time or charge on a recurring basis, etc).
Meanwhile, what you want can be achieved by selling a subscription, with custom variable price, however, you cannot set a custom first payment.
Given all that, I suggest you make the first payment fixed then just adjust your monthly subscription price.
eg:
Total Charge = 150
Fixed first payment = 30
Number of Months = 12
Subscription Price = (total charge - first payment) ÷ number of months
(150 - 30) ÷ 12 = $10/month
You can do these calculations in your first form or in the payment form using a Form Calculation widget.

Then on your payment form, please do the following:
- Please add a Form Calculation widget to receive the monthly subscription price.

- Then you can use either PayPal / Square processor and set it to Sell Subscriptions.
- Create a new subscription and set it to have a Variable Price, then select the Form Calculation widget you just added to be the subscription's price.
Then set the First Payment Cost accordingly. If we base it to my example above, the $30 should go here.

Hi there,
My apologies for the delay in my response!
I have created a demo form for you here:
As my colleague mentioned above: this can best be achieved using the Subscription option, so you'll set up the recurring monthly subscription this way (and as my colleague has indicated). Now, as you'll see, there is no option to only have one payment and we are unable to to have two different payment plans included on one form.
This is where you will want a redirect at the top of the form (we'll be loosely following the recommendations in our guide on how-to-create-a-basic-multiple-payment-form).
First, we add in a Single Choice field for the form respondent to choose their payment type (monthly or fixed/one-time payment):
This will be the crux of the form, so we'll set the following conditions:
IF the respondent chooses Monthly, then the subscription will show (and you can set this using my colleague's recommendations above):
IF the respondent chooses the one-time/fixed payment, then the subscription screen will be hidden and you can:
1) Have a Paragraph field with a hyperlink to the other form show:
OR 2) Set up a redirect to the other form upon submission:
I hope this helps! Please let us know if we can assist further.
