This NIP defines a way for a pubkey to create recurring subscription payments to another pubkey.
## Tier Event
A pubkey can create "tiers". These tiers might provide certain benefits to the supporters who subscribe to these.
Actors in this flow:
* Recipient: A pubkey that receives recurring payments
* Subscriber: A pubkey that sends recurring payments
* Payment verifier: An optional pubkey recipients can designate to verify payments on their behalf
# Kinds
`kind:37001` - Tier Event -- Optionally published by recipients
`kind:7001` - Subscribe Event -- Published by subscribers
`kind:7002` - Unsubscribe Event -- Published by subscribers
`kind:7003` - Subscription Payment Receipt -- Published by payment-verifier-pubkey
## `kind:37001`: Tier Event
A pubkey that wants to provide others the ability to subscribe to them can create "tiers". These tiers might provide certain benefits to the supporters who subscribe to these.

```
This event is generated by a pubkey who wants to allow users to support with different tiers.
`.content` SHOULD be a description of what users who subscribe can expect.
`.content`: description of what subscribers can expect.
Tag `title` is an optional title for the tier.
Tag `image` is an optional image for the tier.
Tag `amount` MUST specify the payment required for this tier and its cadence.
* The first argument should be the stringified amount and the second argument the currency
Zero or more `perk` tags specify the benefits of the tier; these can be rendered as a list of benefits to the user in addition to the content.
One or more `amount` tags specify the payment required for this tier and its cadence.
* The first argument should be the stringified amount in cents or msats, and the second argument the currency
* The third argument SHOULD be one of `daily`, `monthly`, `yearly`
One or more `amount` tags MUST exist.
Zero or more `zap` tags can exist as defined in NIP-57.
A `zap` tag with no pubkey indicates that the client can include any pubkey in the `kind:7001` event (and in the resulting recurring zaps). This way, users can offer a "referral" fee to other clients.
An `r` tag can be included to specify a relay where clients can find special content for this tier.
Zero or more `p` tags can be included to specify a pubkey that is trusted by the tier creator to verify payments on their behalf.
#### Examples
* `[ "amount", "100", "usd", "daily" ]`, $1.00 a day.
* `[ "amount", "1000000", "msats", "daily" ]`, 1000000 millisats a day.

The same `kind:7001` is re-zapped on a regular basis per the cadence specified in the event.
## Verifying Payment
The following conditions must be met to verify a payment:
* Time between zap receipts should be equal or less than the cadence specified in the `kind:7001` event.
* Amount of the zap receipt should be equal or greater than the amount specified in the `kind:7001` event. For currencies not directly supported by the zap spec, clients should do a best effort conversion to the currency specified in the `kind:7001` event at the time of zap receipt.
* Zap-receipts should include a zap request `e`-tagging the `kind:7001` event. Zap-receipts might not include a signature (for NWC-automated payments where the subscriber is not present to sign the zap request).
* Validations specified in [NIP-57](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/57.md).
## Stopping a subscription
A user who wants to signal they are no longer subscribed can publish a `kind:7002` event tagging the `kind:7001` they are stopping and `p`-tagging the pubkey they are no longer subscribed to.

## Subscription Payment Receipt
When a subscription payment is made and a `payment-verifier-pubkey` is set on the `kind:37001` this pubkey publishes `kind:7003` events tagging the `kind:7001` event that was paid and `p`-tagging the pubkey that received the payment.
```js
{
"kind": 7003,
"content": "<optional-message>",
"tags": [
[ "p", "<recipient-pubkey>" ],
[ "P", "<subscriber-pubkey>" ],
[ "e", "<kind-7001-event-id>" ],
[ "valid", "<from-timestamp>", "<to-timestamp>" ]
[ "tier", "kind:37001-d-tag" ]
]
}
```
`p` is the pubkey that received the payment.
`P` is the pubkey that made the payment.
`e` is the `kind:7001` event that was paid.
`valid` is the period for which the payment is valid.
`tier` is the d-tag of the `kind:37001` that this subscription is for.
# Appendix 0: Verifying Payment
The following conditions must be met to verify a payment:
* Time between zap receipts should be equal or less than the cadence specified in the `kind:7001` event.
* Amount of the zap receipt should be equal or greater than the amount specified in the `kind:7001` event. For currencies not directly supported by the zap spec, clients should do a best effort conversion to the currency specified in the `kind:7001` event at the time of zap receipt.
* Zap-receipts should include a zap request `e`-tagging the `kind:7001` event. Zap-receipts might not include a signature (for NWC-automated payments where the subscriber is not present to sign the zap request).
* Validations specified in [NIP-57](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/57.md).
If `kind:7003` events are published by the payment-verifier-pubkey, clients can use these to verify payments more simply.
