GUIDE
A subscription turns a sale into steady, repeating revenue. Here is how to sell one from your own site and let the billing run itself.
THE SHORT ANSWER
The simplest way is a platform that already does recurring payments. You create a plan, set the price and the interval, and subscribers are billed automatically until they cancel. Instinctor includes subscriptions, so there is no separate billing app to connect and reconcile.
STEP BY STEP
1. Define the plan
Decide what subscribers get each period: a product delivery, a service, access, or a bundle. Make the value clear.
2. Set price and interval
Choose a weekly, monthly or yearly price. Yearly plans lock in revenue; monthly lowers the barrier to start.
3. Connect payments
Link a card processor once so subscribers can pay by card or wallet, with money going to your bank.
4. Let billing recur
Subscribers are charged automatically each interval, so revenue arrives without you lifting a finger.
5. Handle changes
Upgrades, pauses and cancellations are managed for you, so subscribers stay happy and you stay hands-off.
6. Watch it in your dashboard
See active subscribers, revenue and cancellations in one place, next to your other sales.
BUILT IN VS BOLTED ON
You could add a subscriptions app on top of a store. It works, but your recurring billing, one-off orders and customers end up in separate systems you have to keep aligned.
Predictable revenue
Automatic recurring billing means income you can count on, without re-selling the same customer every month.
Everything in one system
Subscriptions sit with your store and customers, so there is nothing to sync between a billing app and your site.
One bill, no cut
Subscriptions are part of your plan. Instinctor does not take a percentage of the recurring revenue you build.

They overlap. Subscriptions focus on recurring billing for a product or service, while memberships add tiers and access. Both are built in.
The card processor charges its standard rate. Instinctor does not add a cut of your subscription revenue on top.
