Easy Subscription Help Guide

Overview

Easy Subscription offers two types of subscription plans to accommodate the diverse needs of merchants and customers: Pay as you go and Prepaid plans. Below, we’ll delve into each plan type and provide three examples for better understanding:

Pay as You Go Plans

With Pay as you go plans, customers are billed for each subscription cycle as they go, providing flexibility and convenience. Here are a few examples of Pay as you go plans:

Monthly Magazine Subscription:

• Customers subscribe to receive a monthly magazine issue.
• They are billed at the beginning of each month for the upcoming issue.
• Subscribers can cancel or pause their subscription at any time.

Weekly Meal Delivery Service:

• Customers sign up for a weekly meal delivery subscription.
• They are charged on a weekly basis for the upcoming week’s meals.
• Subscribers have the flexibility to skip a week or modify their meal selections as needed.

Bi-weekly Pet Supplies Subscription:

• Pet owners opt for a bi-weekly subscription to receive pet supplies.
• They are billed every two weeks for the delivery of pet essentials.
• Subscribers can adjust the delivery frequency or contents of their subscription based on their pet’s needs.

Configuration

Within the Pay as you go plan, you only need to configure the billing rule for the frequency as the billing frequency and the delivery frequency for the pay as you go plan are the same. For example, if a customer is purchasing a monthly subscription, the configuration would look like this:

Prepaid Plans

Prepaid plans require customers to pay for a set period of time upfront, offering cost savings and convenience. Here are a few examples of Prepaid plans:

Annual Software Subscription:

• Subscribers enjoy a discounted rate compared to monthly billing and have access to the software for the entire year.

Quarterly Beauty Box Subscription:

• They pay for three months’ worth of boxes upfront.
• Subscribers receive a discounted price per box compared to monthly subscribers and enjoy the convenience of receiving beauty products regularly.

• Fitness enthusiasts purchase a six-month membership for access to fitness classes.
• They pay for the entire membership duration in advance.
• Subscribers benefit from a discounted rate per class compared to drop-in rates and have guaranteed access to classes throughout the membership period.
