Is it possible to set the quantity for a subscription?

    Hmm... Not exactly sure what you mean here. Are you familiar with tracked items? Take a look here: http://support.cheddargetter.com/faqs/pricing-plans/pricing-plan-ba...

    I'm aware that I can do this with tracked items...trying to do it on the
    main subscription as well.

    I see... A customer can only be subscribed to one plan at a time. In other words, there is no quantity at the subscription level. Some merchants have "multi" subscription plans which track subscriptions at the tracked item level. I'd like to help further... Can you describe in more detail what you'd like to do?

    Let's say I have a email subscription and I want to give users the option of editing the quantity. I also want them to be able to edit the amount of additional storage as a quantity add-on. Today your app allows me to do number 2 but not number 1.

    One of your competitors allows this, but they do not allow me to specify ai different webhook destination for each subscription like you all do. I need both features.

    Also to speed deployment time, are you all planning to offer hosted payment pages anytime soon?

    Bill -- I'm still not fully understanding the quantity of email subscriptions.

    We hope to have this done sometime in early '11.

    Mark, I'm going to attach a print-out from one of your competitors. See how can you can the quantity of the SUBSCRIPTION (at the bottom) in addition to the ADD-ONS?

    Bill -- I must confess that I do not see quantity settings for anything aside from the "add-ons". What are you referring to as the "subscription"?

    I see that you have "Basic Email Account" setup as an add-on. Is this what you'd like to set a quantity for? If so, yes, this can be setup as a tracked item. All tracked items can have quantity settings.

    My fault. This print doesn't show it. U need to be able to change the quantity for the actual subscription itself, not just the add-ons.

    I don't really know how to make it any clearer.

    So, you want to put a quantity on the $10/mo charge? Something else?

    Yes and also the addons.

    I see -- You can set the recurring amount to zero for the subscription and use a tracked item for the "subscription". On the tracked item, set the quantity included to zero, and the overage amount to 10. Set the quantity of the item when creating the customer.

    If you would like to have distinctly different subscriptions, each must be a unique customer record.
