What you can expect

Pay as you go

What is a Pay As You Go plan? Pay As You Go is a flexible and widely-used subscription payment model that charges customers in sync with their delivery schedule.

For example: If a subscription is set to deliver once a month, choosing ‘Pay As You Go’ means the customer will be automatically billed each month, and Appstle will generate a corresponding order for you to fulfill.

Prepaid

What is a Prepaid Subscription Plan? A prepaid subscription allows you to charge customers upfront for multiple future deliveries of a recurring product.

For example: You might offer a monthly subscription for Product X, but with a 12-month prepaid option. The customer pays once for the full year, and the product is delivered monthly over those 12 months.

Prepaid plans often come with special discounts to encourage upfront commitment. Unlike Pay As You Go, the billing frequency (once every 12 months) and fulfillment frequency (once a month) are set separately.

Advanced Prepaid

What is an Advanced Subscription Plan?

An advanced subscription plan gives you more control and flexibility by allowing you to set custom billing rules — such as when customers can cancel and when subscriptions should automatically expire.

For example: You can set a rule that customers can only cancel after 3 billing cycles. You can also configure the subscription to automatically end after a specific number of cycles — say, after 6 months of deliveries, even if the customer doesn’t manually cancel.

This model is great for offering limited-time plans, trial periods, or curated subscription journeys, while still ensuring predictable revenue.

With advanced subscriptions, you can define:

  • Minimum commitment cycles before cancellation is allowed

  • Auto-expiry cycles after which the subscription ends automatically

Customization

Widget Customization — Make your subscription experience truly your own! With widget customization, you can tailor the look, feel, and behavior of your subscription widget to match your brand’s identity and customer journey.
