SubscriptionBridge - Recurring billing for ProductCart

SubscritionBridge is the new subscription management and recurring billing system created by Early Impact to help you easily create subscription packages, sell them, and manage all the customer service tasks that are part of the life of a subscription.

Just like with most of our ecommerce software, we created SubscriptionBridge to solve real business problems that we were facing every day. Since we started using it, SubscriptionBridge has helped us immensly with reducing the time and money spent on managing existing subscriptions, while making it easier and faster to create and sell new subscription-based services.

SubscriptionBridge will help you automate the management of the subscription-based product and services that you offer to our customers, giving you better tools to run your business.

Some of the things that SubscriptionBridge does for you:

• It automatically sends HTML e-mail notifications in all sorts of scenarios
• It gives you tools to manage a subscription: edit, add features, process one-time charges, make custom adjustments, etc.
• It gives your customers a way to view and edit their subscription through a full-featured Customer Center
• It integrates with ProductCart to allow you to sell subscriptions right from your store catalog

The integration between SubscriptionBridge and our ProductCart shopping cart software brings subscription billing features to your ProductCart-powered ecommerce store.

• Quickly activate SubscriptionBridge in ProductCart
  SubscriptionBridge is built into ProductCart v4.1 and above: ProductCart and SubscriptionBridge will communicate in real time through the SubscriptionBridge API
• Easily flag a product as a subscription
  Once the integration has been activated, you will be able to easily locate a product or service in your ProductCart catalog and associate it with a subscription “package” that has been setup through the SubscriptionBridge Merchant Center. You can also specify, at the product level, whether customers should have to agree to subscription-specific “Terms & Conditions” during checkout.
• Show subscriptions terms in the storefront
  Once a product has been linked to a subscription, the ProductCart storefront will automatically show the subscription terms and conditions when loading the product details page and when adding the product to the shopping cart.
• Sell subscriptions through your storefront
  ProductCart will automatically recognize a product that has been linked to a subscription package and handle it differently during checkout: the customer's experience will remain the same, but ProductCart will hand off the information to SubscriptionBridge, which will create a subscription profile at the time the order is placed.
• Sell subscriptions and one time purchase products at the same time
  ProductCart supports the sale of subscription-based and one-time purchase items in the same shopping cart: for example, from the Early Impact software store you can purchase, at the same time, a ProductCart software license (one time sale) and a Support & Updates Plan (yearly subscription): ProductCart automatically and invisibly “splits” the purchase and creates a recurring billing profile for the subscription portion of it. The only limitation is that the subscription and the other items are not items that both require shipping and taxes. Lean more on this limitation.
