# About the Orders API

With Orders, Wix users can manage orders and create offline orders. They can also change access to content on Wix or external apps upon plan purchase or cancellation.

The Orders API allows you to:
- Create an order.
- Preview an order to show price, tax, and other details.
- Extend an order's duration or cancel an order.
- Pause and resume an order.

## Before you begin
The application of tax to orders is defined at the site level, and isn't accessible using the API. If Wix users need to collect tax, they must [set up tax collection manually](https://support.wix.com/en/article/pricing-plans-setting-up-tax-collection).

## Use cases
- [Send an email on successful payment of online orders](https://dev.wix.com/docs/rest/business-solutions/pricing-plans/pricing-plans/orders/example-flows.md)

  
## Terminology
- **Order:** A purchase of a subscription to a pricing plan. The order details include price, duration, and billing schedule information. Orders can be free. Orders can also be partially free using free trial days.
- **Offline order:** A purchase of a subscription to a pricing plan where the payment isn't handled on a site. This type of order can be created using APIs.
- **Online order:** A purchase of a subscription to a pricing plan where the payment is handled on a site. This type of order can't be created using an API.
- **Buyer:** A customer, usually a member or a site visitor.
