Set up subscriptions
Configure recurring products and billing behavior before offering subscriptions in checkout. A subscription setup can include fixed or variable prices, payment schedules, free trials, promotional discounts, one-time products, and customer-facing subscription information.
Subscription billing must be enabled for your Cleverbridge account. Contact Client Experience if the required options are not available.
Plan the product, price, billing interval, renewal type, payment method, delivery behavior, and customer experience together. Then test the initial purchase, renewal, cancellation, and any upgrade or self-service flows that apply to your implementation.
