> Tip: Always align suspension dates with billing cycles to avoid overcharging. Hapana does not automatically prorate.

### 4. Add optional suspension fees

You can charge:

- A **one-time flat fee** (e.g., $30 total)
- A **recurring fee** (e.g., $10 per week of suspension)

Set your amount, frequency, and click **Update Status**. Then **Confirm** the change.

![Article image](https://support.hapana.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/1759443183476_87c28b40_image-20250529125552-104-1.png?width=2048&height=1273&name=1759443183476_87c28b40_image-20250529125552-104-1.png)

You’ll now see:

- The membership status updated to **Suspended**
- Future invoices updated with the suspension fee
- The regular billing invoice paused during the suspension

### 5. View suspension history

- Under the membership details, find the Payment Statistics section.
- Click the **eye icon** to see all past and upcoming suspension periods.

### Expected outcome

The client’s membership will be paused for the selected dates. Their regular payments will be paused, and any added suspension fees will generate as invoices.

---

### FAQs

**Can I suspend a membership without an end date?**

Yes — just leave the end date blank. You can update it later.

**Will suspension fees charge automatically?**

Yes — if you add a fee and save, invoices will generate according to the setup.

**Can I view past suspensions?**

Yes — they’re listed under the **Suspensions** tab in the membership view.
