Glossary
The words this dashboard uses, and what each one means.
- Product: the family, such as “Coffee Subscription”. A product holds plans.
- Plan: a tier inside a product, such as “Basic” or “Premium”. A plan holds prices.
- Price: a billing option on a plan, such as monthly or yearly. The checkout link belongs to the price, not the plan.
- Subscription: one customer on one price, with a state and a next renewal date.
- Add-on: something a customer buys on top of their subscription, either recurring or one-time.
- Feature set: the rows of the comparison table your customers see.
- Promotion: a discount you apply, or a code your customer enters.
- Dunning: the retry schedule that runs when a payment fails, and what is sent at each step.
- Renewal reminder: a message sent before a renewal, so the charge is not a surprise.
- Setup fee: a one-time amount charged with the first payment.
- Delivery schedule: how often you deliver, when that differs from how often you bill. A monthly price can deliver weekly, four times.
