Product Operations
Let’s explore various actions you can do from a product’s Details page.
Adding Plans, Addons, and Coupons
From a product’s details page, you can create plans, addons, and coupons to define pricing, features, and promotions for your service. This allows you to manage all offerings associated with a product in a single location. Here’s how to add them:

- Navigate to the Plans module at the top.
- Select the Products tab.
- Select the product from which you want to create plans, addons or coupons.
- Click + Add Plan to create a plan.
- Click + Add Addon to create an addon.

Once added, plans, addons, and coupons will be available for customer subscriptions.
Editing Products

Here’s how to edit a product:

Once the changes are saved, the updated product details will apply to new subscriptions created afterward. Existing subscriptions will remain unchanged.
Associating Email Templates With a Product
Associating email templates with a product allows you to customize the emails sent for subscription related events. This helps ensure that customers receive consistent and relevant communication based on the product they are subscribed to.

Once the email templates are associated, the selected templates will be used for all applicable notifications related to the product. This ensures that communication sent to customers reflects the product specific messaging and branding.
Marking a Product As Inactive or Active
Marking a product as inactive allows you to stop using a good or service without deleting its data. Inactive products are not available for new subscriptions, but their existing records are retained for reference and reporting.
Note: You can mark a product as inactive only when all the associated plans, addons and coupons are marked as inactive.
Here’s how to mark a product as inactive:
- Click Items on the left sidebar.
- Navigate to the Plans module at the top.
- Select the Products tab.

- Navigate to the Plans module at the top.
- Select the Products tab.
- Select the product which you want to mark as active.
