FR: Free Plan #190
Comments
I'm curious about your goals here, maybe you can elaborate on how you imagine using this? If a plan doesn't have any features or prices, then you can't subscribe a customer to it. It sounds like maybe what you're looking for is a way to specify limits (even if it's just configuration) for a user of your application who has not yet signed up for an account (and so doesn't have any subscription or customer record in Stripe). The simplest way of creating a "free plan", of course, is to just have a plan where the price of every feature is $0. But there's no way for Tier to set limits for an org if there's no subscription, so for example, |
At present (until we build a separate hosted service for Tier specifically), Stripe is Tier's "data storage", so without a Stripe Subscription, Customer, Product, or Price backing it, there... isn't anything to "store" 😅 |
So yeah, I think the way to do this is just to have a plan that doesn't charge anything, and go ahead and If I'm missing the goal/need here, definitely let me know, happy to reopen this and explore the idea. |
One can now (as of v0.7.0) schedule a plan the is in trial mode indefinitely as well. |
Does that mean there is no payment method required to subscribe to a "free" plan, or is that one limitation of the current implementation? |
@zepatrik It should not be required by Stripe to have payment on file to subscribe and maintain a free plan/trial period. Stripe doesn't complain until its time to charge >$0. |
What are you trying to do?
Implement a free plan next to some paid ones in the
pricing.json
.How should we solve this?
It should be defined the same way as any other plan and have certain features. It differs from the other plans because there are no prices, interval, and also no actual stripe subscription backing the data storage (there might not even be a customer).
The feature limits should still be enforced the same way as for any other plan.
What is the impact of not solving this?
No response
Anything else?
Features will likely be all "constant" #183, as there is no way to exceed the limit.
