Commitment period
Commitment period is extremely useful feature specific to Subbly which makes it possible for you to disable customers from being able to cancel for the duration of the commitment term. Here's how you can utilize it for best performance 👇
What's the benefit of setting up commitment terms?
Commitment term functionality on the product setup basically adds number of payment periods the customer will need to stay committed to the product. Ie., that means that the customer won't be able to cancel their subscription until the duration of the commitment term is up.
This makes it possible for you to juggle between different types of product setup and you will be able to offer the same product offering for a longer term on a lower monthly price.
This is a big deal to be honest ⚡️. We tested this with merchant's and it greatly reduced churn (cancellations) and increased sign ups (due to lower monthly price for the commitment option).
How to set this up?
Very easy! Commitment term toggle can be found when creating the subscription product. Namely, you will have to manipulate the simple input field as seen below 👇

Furthermore, if you'd want the commitment period disclaimer to be presented to your customers at the checkout, you will need to enable the functionality from this page here, as presented below 👇

And that's it 😉 You are all set!
FAQs
Is subscription going to cancel itself after the expiration of the commitment term?
No! Please note that setting up commitment term only prevents customer from actually cancelling his/her subscription for the given period of time. Customer's subscriptions won't cancel after the expiration of the commitment period but will continue indefinitely until necessary action is taken to cancel the account.
What are the main benefits of setting up a commitment period for my products?
This will ensure that customer won't churn during the commitment period. And when you know that customer will stick around for a longer time, you can give them a discount on a monthly basis in order to incentivize them to commit to your product.
Is commitment period shown on the checkout?
Not by default but you can enable the commitment term to be shown on the checkouts by going here and enabling the following toggle 👇

Can customers cancel their subscription during the commitment term?
When they checkout on the product that has certain commitment term regulated, they won't be able to cancel their subscription from their customer login area until the commitment term end date is reached.
However, please note that we can't prevent customers from pulling off money from their card or cancelling the card or even filing a charge back with their bank. In all of these situations payments won't go through and commitment terms won't be met.
