Hi I am implementing a web site with subscriptions for which I bought the CBsubs.My requirement is to handle the type of subscription below:

Subscription: that my clients can have a trial period of five days and from the 6th day that it will automatically begin to charge the credit card that they have previously entered during registration process (start of trial). This means that when registering
they will be prompted to enter their credit card but the charge will take place from the 6th day,and from that day the monthly payments will be made automatically. (Without user intervention)


To implement this subscription I have created a plan that has the following characteristics:
Pricing : Different first period and price for Registration and Upgrade
Auto-renewals with auto-recurring payments: Yes: subscribe user to automatic recurring payments (*)

I conducted my tests with Sandbox and everything works fine, the charge is done perfectly
however the CBSubs is taken it as if each payment were a new subscription, this means that
for one user is generating more subscriptions when it should generate reactivations.

The fact that is creating new subscriptions (to have multiple subscriptions for a user on my BD)
for me is not a big problem (I could handle and settle down).

I wonder if in addition to the problem described this would have other inconviniences?
(and the CBsubs will work normally.)

This project is very important to me and please I would like you to be detailed in your response.
At this stage I need to have everything clear to avoid future problems.

Thank you very much.

Hi again and sorry to insist but I really need some clear answers,
Please could you answer my question if I'll get into trouble with this type of configuration and the plan I am using? Would it Supports this kind of configuration and the CBSUBs plan? .
For now I'm assuming that it does and I made the correction thast you said to do in my system, but I see that they still create new subscriptions for the same plan and for the same user when it should re-activated the first subscription.
It is worth mentioning that charges with Sandbox are continuing to work well as at the beginning.
thanks for your quick response.

Hi,
Thanks for your response; I have a better view now.
Let me tell you that the plan you gave me does not fit what we need to do, so that’s why I'm trying out another plan. This plan consists of 12 hours free (not renewable) and when that expires this can do an upgrade to another plan with daily payments of $ 49.9.

When we create users on this plan we see this flow:
1.-The registration to the free plan (12 hours free) is performed without problems. (it doesn’t make any payments)

2.-After the 12 hours of free Plan the system asks me to do an upgrade, for which it sent to paypal to make payment, which also took place smoothly.

3.-The next day saw the subscription fee in my sandbox account, but when I go to the back-end of the Cbsubs shows as if I had made a new Upgrade, is this correct? it should be a Renewal?
I've read all the documentation and I don’t have clear in which cases are activated, or they are used these statements: "New Registrations", "Upgrades" and "Renewals" this is very important to me.
Thanks again for your quick and detailed response.
