Subscriptions Overview

Create a subscription to regularly bill your customers for your software or service. Depending on the type of subscription you configure, you or FastSpring can bill customers in customized increments. 

  • Automatic-Renewal: FastSpring automatically rebills customers in the time increments you configure for the subscription. Customers can update payment information or cancel their subscription in the account management portal.
  • Managed: You or your team initiates charges from the app or the /subscriptions endpoint. This is beneficial for usage-based rebills. Customers can update payment information or cancel their subscription in the account management portal.
  • Manual-Renewal: FastSpring does not store payment information at checkout. Customers can access the account management portal to make a payment for the subscription prior to the expiration date. Otherwise, FastSpring cancels the subscription.

Each subscription contains a subscription definition, which includes the frequency of charges, payment amount, payment duration, and product path. After you create the subscription, you can apply customizations and promotions.
