Discounted and promotional subscriptions
Subscribers can receive a variety of discounts from creators:
1. Free trial subscriptions: For the first billing period, the Creator has set the discount to 100%. The Subscriber must sign up for the subscription in order for it to renew. Unless the fan explicitly indicates that they wish to renew at the full subscription cost, it will not automatically renew.
2. Subscriptions at a discount – the Creator is running a campaign to promote their profile. A discount for a creator's monthly subscription can be specified. Upon the expiration of the promotional billing term, the subscriptions are automatically renewed. Only the first payment cycle is eligible for the discounted pricing.
The percentage discount is calculated using a Creator's standard monthly subscription fee. $3 is the smallest promotional price that can be given. The highest discount that the Creator can provide is 50% in the case of a $6 monthly subscription fee. The greatest discount that the Creator may provide is 90% off of a $30 monthly subscription.
In either scenario, the subscription price returns to the full price subscription when the payment term with the promotional amount has ended.
3. Individual subscription discounts: The Creator may provide particular supporters with individual discounts. A Creator may give a unique personal discount to each fan by choosing a discount percentage (5–40%) and period (1–12 months). When the new billing month begins, the newly personalised discounted price will be charged for any active membership.
