@abcoathup will you share an update on this ? |
You need to add a rationale and security considerations section. Then you will need an EIP editor to review. |
|
The commit 9dad1cf (as a parent of e0f2e86) contains errors. |

| ## Specification | ||
|
|
||
| The Subscription Token implements an interface following the guidelines defined in [ERC-1337](./eip-1337.md), ensuring consistency and interoperability across different implementations. Key features include: |

Mentioning ERC-1337 creates an implicit dependency between your proposal and that one. There's nothing wrong with doing so, if it's intentional, but I want to point it out because your proposal won't be able to advance past the status of ERC-1337 (so you'd be stuck in draft.)
We enforce this rule because the author of ERC-1337 could completely change the contents of their proposal, making yours nonsensical.

The content here is a bit light, even for a draft. After reading, I don't really have a good idea of what these entities are.

I will add more details to this

| function subscribers(uint idx) external view returns (address); | ||

Notes like this don't really belong in a standard. You should completely define the interface, with formal ways to extend it if necessary.
| The introduction of the Subscription Token EIP addresses several critical aspects of the Ethereum ecosystem, providing a rationale for its adoption and implementation. | ||
|
|
||
| Traditional subscription models often require users to manually initiate recurring payments, leading to inconvenience and potential disruptions in service delivery. By establishing a Subscription Token standard, users can authorize automatic deductions from their balances at predefined intervals. This automation simplifies the subscription management process, ensuring uninterrupted access to subscribed services without the need for repetitive manual actions. |

This all reads more like it belongs in the Motivation section. The Rationale section should justify technical choices made within the EIP itself, while the Motivation justifies the EIP as a whole.

Just checking if this is ready for re-review? |
Yes, just updating with the required changes, I'll push and tag you then |

I am closing this pull request because we are in the process of separating EIPs and ERCs into distinct repositories. Unfortunately, as far as we are aware, GitHub does not provide any tools to ease this migration, so every pull request will need to be re-opened manually. As this is a PR to create / modify an ERC, I will kindly ask you to redirect this to the new repository at ethereum/ERCs. We have prepared a guide to help with the process. If there is relevant history here, please link to this PR from the new pull request. On behalf of the EIP Editors, I apologize for this inconvenience. |
The subscription-based ERC-20 token extends the basic ERC-20 token standard with a subscribe and unsubscribe function, which allow users to subscribe or unsubscribe from the subscription service. The subscriptionFee and subscriptionFrequency variables define the cost and frequency of the subscription. The nextPaymentDate mapping keeps track of the next payment date for each subscriber.
This EIP also proposes adding renewSubscription functions to the token contract, that can be used by token holders to renew their subscription to a service or product that requires recurring payments in the form of the token.
