We may have subscription options that increase the total price of the Subscription.

I see that you support Addons.

  1. Is the extra amt of the addon billed automatically every month (if we so choose)?
  2. How do I create an Addon in the free developer account?

    You'll want to use Tracked Items for this, and yes you can set them to either bill automatically every month, or reset at the beginning of each month, your choice.

    I don't see how to implement Tracked Items in my Developer account. Is that possible and if so, how do I do it?

    If it's only possible in the paid plans, can you point me to instructions on how to do it (I just want to get a better feel for how it works)

    Here is the best explanation of using Tracked Items for add-ons:

    It is possible to use Tracked Items with all of our accounts, Developer included.

    That explains how to use them (seeing if a subscriber has a Tracked item, etc.) but not how to create them.

    Sorry for the confusion.

    Creating the tracked item is done in the admin dashboard. The form is at the bottom of the pricing plan page:

    Manipulating Tracked Item quantities via the API is covered here:

    I see the Add New plan but nothing (and no other form) about adding a Tracked Item.

    Am I missing something? Is a Plan the same as a Tracked Item?

    At the very bottom of the new pricing plan form you'll see an area for adding tracked items:
