This is something no other system does. It will allow people to setup processes so that if a user cancels their subscription, you can delay removing the tag until the paid period has completed. It loads a field on the contact with the expiration date, and then can apply a tag/goal/action to that contact depending on the results. You could use that to kick off a campaign that tries to recapture the user (cancel their cancel) and eventually that removes their access tag or adds a PAYF or CANC tag to drop access.
It’s not very scalable to a system with many subscription plans that wants to handle each type of subscription differently. For 80% of the people it will do the job nicely. I may give some thought to make it solve for 100%.
operation=scan-subscriptions
- Scans through the subscriptions the contact has.
- If all the subscriptions are inactive, it will load the subscription end date in a field on the contact
- If any of the subscriptions are active, it will clear the end date in the field on the contact
- You can pass it action sets, goals, or tags to apply depending on if the subscription is detected inactive or not
