Help with events on specific dates!

So again I pretty new to laravel so forgive my ignorance or lack of understanding.

Basically what I want to achieve is:

I want to be able to use the user's payment plan so on the specific date in the database 'plans' it grabs the user and amount and for instance make a one off charge with Stripe or if that's too much maybe just fire off an email to the user as a reminder.

I assume it's Events I need to use? Or is there something I can use to make this a little easier to achieve?

Or point me in the right direction?

:)

Why are you using one off charges? if you are expecting a recurring payment? Stripe can handle subscriptions if that's the type of service you are making? you can choose any interval within 1 year with Stripe.

@gregurco I'll take a look, maybe that's what I need! Thanks :)

@handy_man Basically it's a rental app, so tenants can pay their rent by instalments but if they want to stay for fixed term like 43 weeks, while four weekly would work, the final payment needs to be less.

It's easier for the user if they are able to say, on these dates charge this user x amount rather than it beings recurring or at least they would prefer it that way even if it might be reinventing the wheel!
