• Go to Dashboard > WP Swings > Subscriptions for WooCommerce > Advanced Settings
• Slide the ‘Ability to take renewal subscription payment from the certain date’

The admin can decide the types of proration on subscription plans. In this way, the customer pays for their subscriptions based on the time they are using it. For that:

• Go to Dashboard > WP Swings > Subscriptions for WooCommerce > Advanced Settings 
• Select from the available option under ‘Prorate amount for certain date of month subscription’

1. Charge Prorate Amount for Subscription:

This option is mainly to prorate the first payment. If there is a difference of days between the start of the subscription plan and payment submission day, the admin can decide to take or not take payment for the rest of the days. 

An initial fee based on the days left in the present billing cycle shall be charged from the customer if the first payment is prorated. 

For example, let us assume that a customer takes up a subscription of 30$ per month on the 15th of July. But, the admin calculates the WooCommerce recurring payments from the 20th of every month. In that case, if this option is enabled, the admin can charge (5$) the 5-day amount from the user at the time of sign-up. (As the difference here between 15th and 20th is 5 days) And, from the next 20th the billing cycle will be refined.

Please note, this addition will be made along with sign up fees if any. Admin also needs to allow the feature of ‘enable subscriptions from a certain date of the month’ for this setting.    

2. Do Not Charge Prorate Amount:

If this option is enabled, no prorated amount will be charged from the customers. Merchants will not be able to take payments for the remaining days of the subscription plan.

Taking the same example, if this option is enabled then the customer will pay 30$ for a subscription plan starting from the 15th of this month till the 20th of the next month as the first recurring payment. In short, customers will not pay any fees for the first 5 days and directly pay 30$ next 20th.

3. Charge Prorate Amount For Subscription Even Free Trial:

This option will charge a prorated amount for the subscription plan. It will also include the free trial fees. 

Understanding with the same example, if a 30$ per month subscription plan starts from the 15th and the payment date is the 20th, but the admin has set a free trial of 2 days. Then, the prorated amount will be charged after a 2 days trial.

As in this case, the free trial will end on the 17th. So, customers will have to pay 3 days prorated amount (3$ as the difference between the 17th and 20th is 3 days) at sign-up.

Subsequently, the recurring payment will be taken from the following payment date after the start date.

For example, a user buys a subscription product of 99$ from your store on 25 January with a start date of 15 February. In this case, the subscription will start from 15 February. Still, the first payment by the user will be made on 25 January itself on the checkout page(including sign-up fees, if any).

Steps to edit subscription per interval:

Merchants can take renewal subscription payments from a particular day of a week, month or year.

This means the admin can synchronize days depending upon the subscription per interval, i.e.:

• Monday, Tuesday, etc. in case of weeks
• Day1, Day 2, etc. in case of months
• January, February, etc., in the case of years.    

The recurring payment shall be cut from the subscriber account on this day.

In order to enable subscription plans from a certain date of the month, the admin can enable this feature. 

• Go to Dashboard > Products > All Products > Any Subscription Product > Subscriptions Settings

• Mark the ‘Enable subscription certain date of month’ checkbox   

Subsequently, you can select from the day for synchronization of your payments.

It will show days of the week for weeks, and for years, it will show months. 

If the admin wants to grant a subscription service forever or unlimited subscription of a product, then

• Go to Dashboard > Products > All Products > Any Subscription Product > Subscriptions Settings
