Top 5 Frequently Asked Questions

What is subscription pricing or subscription-based model?

A subscription-based pricing model allows a customer or organization to purchase or subscribe to a merchant’s products or services for a specific period of time for a set price and billing frequency on a recurring basis.

Why is subscription pricing important?

One of the main reasons why subscription pricing is important is because it offers a convenient way for customers to try new items without a long-term, costly commitment.

Why adopt a subscription business model?

There are many reasons why subscription pricing is important to consider. One, it attracts more customers with its lower entry point (e.g. paying $15 monthly vs. $150 upfront). Two, it offers more predictable revenue for businesses. And three, it allows businesses to build stronger, more valuable relationships with their customers.

What is the difference between a subscription and a license?

The difference between a subscription and a license is that a license is typically sold as a one-time charge and allows the user to access the product indefinitely, while a subscription is billed on a recurring basis and provides user access only while they continue to pay the subscription fee.

How does a subscription management model work?

Subscription management business models are based on the idea of selling a product or service to receive monthly or yearly recurring subscription revenue.
