Subscriptions power your plans and recurring shipments in Marzipan. There are two things to understand:
  • A package (also called a plan) is the template a customer subscribes to.
  • A subscription is one customer’s individual instance of that package.

Package types

Packages come in three types:
  • Fixed — the customer receives the same items each time.
  • Variable — you schedule changing shipments over time.
  • Pick & Mix — the customer chooses their own items each cycle.

Pricing

Pricing works one of two ways: a single fixed price for the whole package, or per-item pricing where each pick-and-mix item is priced individually.

The Subscriber tag

Customers with an active subscription are automatically given a Subscriber tag. This tag is used for subscriber pricing and for building customer segments.

Subscriptions

To view your subscriptions:
  1. Log in to your Marzipan account
  2. Click on Subscriptions in the main navigation menu
  3. The list displays every customer subscription across all of your packages
Subscriptions list
The list has the following columns:
  • Customer — the subscriber
  • Package — the package they subscribe to
  • Started — when the subscription began
  • Renews — the next renewal date
  • Typefixed, variable or picknmix
  • Market — only shown on multi-market stores
  • Status — the current subscription status
Click on any subscription in the list to view its subscription details.

Filtering and searching

You can refine the list with:
  • Filter by item
  • Filter by Status — Active, Cancelled, Expired or Suspended
  • Filter by market
  • Filter by start date
  • A Cancelled/Expired date range
  • Search
