@Ejegg In case it's useful I want to flag the DR process/workflow for pausing donations:

To ensure donors get a full three months without billing agents will actually select a date four months from the last billing date and inform donors that “we will skip the next three installments and will resume billing on [date].”

🟢 For donations processed via Adyen, Gr4vy, and Braintree (Venmo) we can pause their donation in Civi using the instructions below.

🛑 We cannot pause donations made via PayPal, Fundraise Up (FRU), or dLocal. We will need to fully cancel the recurring donation and the donor will need to reestablish a new recurring donation when they are ready.

Let me know if you want me to book a call with DR to talk through their process and limitations in how they currently handle recurring donation pauses.

Currently paused donations still have an option to "pause" - should I open up a new phab about removing this when a gift is in this "paused" state?

Noting that a future (i.e. post-launch) ask will be around how someone can restart a paused recurring early. That could def be a seperate phab, just flagging.

That's tracked as T406520. The commit is still waiting for review: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/DonationInterface/+/1194957

Oh wait, that's the PayPal pause buttons - let me make another patch for removing 'pause' from already-paused contributions.
