In my app I've wix-managed trial and a recurring subscription model.
and for certain features I want to provide users with credits which can be purchased seperately.
for that I was thinking of using "Single" (non recurring fee) billing plan.
but it's giving me warning that it will disable my app's free trial.
It's my requirement to have free trial and it needs to be wix-managed (instead of slef managed).

what other option can I use for one time user payments without giving up wix-managed free trial for my app?

can I use "custom" (pay as you go) plan for this?

Usage-based (https://dev.wix.com/docs/build-apps/launch-your-app/pricing-and-billing/set-up-a-usage-based-business-model) doesn't have free trial

Set Up a Usage-Based Business Model

Availability: This pricing model is in early development. Apps can have only one usage-based plan and no other plans. To add a usage-based plan to your app, submit a request.

#

What are you trying to get out of the wix-managed trial? You can also implement your own trial, using your custom logic

@placid estuary
for my recurring plans, I need the user to be subscribed with their card details before the payment cycle.
that is, user is already subscribed during the trial and payment happens when the trial ends. that is how wix-managed trials work right?
with self managed trials I'll have to generate the checkout page for reccuring plans after the trial has ended, and I dont want that.

and with usage based plans I cannot have the recurring plans right?

Above statements are correct. "and with usage based plans I cannot have the recurring plans right?" --> You can have recurring plans with this. Check the above link, it's a base subscription price + charges added on top. But this doesn't support wix-managed free trial.

@placid estuary could you suggest me any workaround by which I can get
recurring subscription plans with wix-managed trials and one time payments together?
or is it not possible?

#

If you tried to add wix-managed trial + single charge and it doesn't work, you will probably need to compromise on something

Hi @placid estuary, for just these custom one time payments, can I use third-party payment processing platforms?

Usually all payments must be made through Wix - pls note that I am a developer like you
