Fixed Term Subscriptions
Offer one time programs, challenges, courses, or coaching packages with Foodzilla's Fixed Term Subscription option.
Unlike recurring subscriptions, fixed term subscriptions automatically end after a single billing cycle, making them ideal for limited duration offers.
What Is a Fixed Term Subscription?
A fixed term subscription charges your client once and automatically expires at the end of the selected billing period.
For example:
• 4 Week Challenge
• 8 Week Coaching Program
• Nutrition Kickstart Package
• One Month Meal Plan Access
No cancellation is required because the subscription ends automatically.
How to Create a Fixed Term Subscription
- Go to Store & Payments
- Select Plans & Pricing
- Create a new plan or edit an existing one
- Choose Fixed Term Subscription
- Set your billing amount and duration
- Save your changes
Your clients will see the fixed term option during checkout.
