Description

Descriptions can be key to getting subscribers - people want to know what your subscription is about. Little or cryptic details will leave subscribers unsure about your offerings.

  • Present value quickly and clearly. Subscribers want to know exactly what they get without effort.
  • Use bullet points for easy scanning. Large blocks of text will probably not be read.
  • Add links. Subscribers want to see you're alive elsewhere and know more about you.
  • Provide social proof. Show how your current subscribers are benefiting.

Time-capped Subscriptions


Hypersubs can be used for limited or one time courses, events, and commitment clubs. To set up a time-capped subscription use a combination of advanced settings:

  • Supply cap: Do you want to limit participants?
  • Start date: When does your subscription begin?
  • End date: When does your subscription end?
  • Max mintable time: Ensures subscribers can't pay more than they need to.

12 month book club example:

  • Price set to $10 per month: The minimum someone can spend is $10.
  • Max mintable time set to 12 months: The maximum someone can spend is $120.
  • Supply cap set to 50: The maximum amount of participants is 50.
  • End date set one year out: Subscription will end after 12 months.

Archive Subscription

Reasons to archive can include:

  • An event has passed
  • A subscription has ended
  • Commitments can no longer be filled
  • Mistakes were made at the contract level

To archive your subscription use a combination of hidden and paused:

  1. Go to your subscription page and click the Edit button
  2. Scroll to Hidden and Paused and switch them on
  3. Confirm and sign the transaction

Important: be sure to fulfill any commitments to active subscribers when archiving. Refund them if you can't.

Revive your subscription any time by switching Hidden and Paused off.
