I'd like to give a free Month to a group of people and not require them to enter a credit card.

(Our account normally requires the user to enter a credit card number)

    Hi --

    You can delay the initial payment for the plan that group is on by 30 days. Just enter your pricing plan configuration and you can edit the details there.

    Please let me know if you need anything else.

    We have those plans charge delayed 7 days but it still asks for a credit card on signup).

    1. I want to let them start using it for their free month, etc. (If they have the promo code) and NOT require a credit card (that lowers the conversion rate).

    2. I want to waive the CC requirement ONLY if they have the PROMO code.

    Is this possible?

    Configuring a promo code in that manner isn't possible, however there is a way to accomplish something similar.

    You can put the customers in question on a free plan, then when they enter their credit card, you switch them to the paid plan.

    You can use the email notifications system to remind customers that they need to enter their credit card to continue using the service. A free plan still has a recurring invoice, it's for zero dollars but it still happens. So, you can use the payment receipt email (when it's for the free trial plan) to notify customers on the free trial plan that it's time to enter their credit card.

    You can also use the transaction post hook to notify your application that the free trial for the customer has ended if necessary in order to change their account when the trial ends.

    If you need anything else, please let me know.

    Can we put them on the Free Plan with an expiration date?
    Do they get email notifications that they need to upgrade to the Pay version?

    Configuring a promo code in that manner isn't possible, however there is a way to accomplish something similar.

    You can put the customers in question on a free plan, then when they enter their credit card, you switch them to the paid plan.

    You can use the email notifications system to remind customers that they need to enter their credit card to continue using the service. A free plan still has a recurring invoice, it's for zero dollars but it still happens. So, you can use the payment receipt email (when it's for the free trial plan) to notify customers on the free trial plan that it's time to enter their credit card.

    You can also use the transaction post hook to notify your application that the free trial for the customer has ended if necessary in order to change their account when the trial ends.

    If you need anything else, please let me know.

    That's where you would use our email notifications system to remind customers that they need to enter their credit card to continue using the service. You can modify the Bill Reminder template to reflect what you'd want.

    You'd need to set a transaction post hook to notify your application that the free trial for the customer has ended in order to change their account when the trial ends.
