Managing Subscriptions

In Alguna, a subscription represents the link between the customer and the pricing for products they subscribe to.

There are three ways to activate subscriptions in Alguna;

1. Activating via Dashboard or API using predefined plans.
2. Activating after the customer signs the custom quotes.
3. Automatically activating when a customer completes self-sign up checkout.

Activate via Dashboard

Once you add all the products you want as part of the subscription, you can activate it it by clicking on Activate Subscription. The contract will be created with the start date and billing schedule for the associated products and terms you specified.

When you click Activate Subscription, you will be given the activation options:

• Activate Subscription: Use this option if you’ve already signed a contract with the customer and want to start billing immediately.
• Request Customer Signature: Choose this option to send the subscription to the customer for acceptance and signature. It will only activate once the customer signs and the start date is reached.

Activate After Customer Signs Quote

If you have already sent a quote to the customer, the subscription will be automatically activated as soon as the customer signs and the contract start date is reached.

Activate Automatically After Self-Serve checkout

If you have you own self-serve plans you can activate them via API or checkout.
