Sell Subscriptions Online

Create subscription products in SellApp with recurring prices, billing intervals, supported payment methods, and subscription tracking.

With SellApp, you can sell subscriptions online by creating products with recurring prices. Customers are charged at a predefined period of time, for example: daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly.

This pricing type is ideal for digital products that require continuous maintenance and effort, with good examples being SaaS software, paid communities, memberships, and resources that are updated regularly.

Let's dive into how you can create a product with a recurring subscription.

Note

Currently, subscription products require a payment method that supports subscriptions, such as Stripe or PayPal.


Create a Subscription Product

  • Start by creating or editing a product in the product dashboard.
  • In the "Pricing" section, select "Subscription" as the pricing type.
    • Once you've enabled the subscription pricing type, you can proceed to set your price and duration for the subscription.
    • Here's a preview of what that looks like:
    Creating a subscription
    • Specify any kind of subscription duration you'd like. Charge customers every X days, weeks, months, or years. The highest duration supported is currently 365 days, 52 weeks, 12 months, or 1 year, so you cannot set the duration to be more than a year.
  • Once saved, customers can purchase this newly created subscription product.
    • We'll handle setting up the subscription and notifying the customer if a payment happens to fail.
    • You'll be able to see how many subscriptions are active and how many payments have been made in your SellApp subscription dashboard
