Subscriptions

Informations générales

With subscriptions, you can provide users with access to a package of services under specified conditions. The subscription management solution is based on the Subscription product.

Subscription plans vary in duration and payment terms. The following types of plans are available:

• Regular plan with regular payments.
• Lifetime plan with a one-time payment and an unlimited period of validity.
• Season pass with a one-time payment and a limited period of validity.

Subscription management (for example, creating and configuring plans, setting up a trial period, setting up a grace period for a subscription) is performed in Publisher Account in the Subscriptions section.

In your application, you need to implement purchase and management of subscriptions using SDK methods.
