Create a “flexi-start” product
Selling subscriptions
Let customers choose their start issue
You can let customers choose their subscription’s start issue when you use flexi-start subscription products.
This option is available at a product level so you can choose which specific products allow for a customer-defined start issue.
Create a “flexi-start” product
When you create a new product, choose “Current or next issue” from the “Start issue” dropdown, which will create a
flexi-start
product.
When selecting this product in the checkout, customers will see an option to choose from your current issue or the next one.
