In this article, I show you how to add a setup fee to a paid plan. 

  1. Go to the Memberstack dashboard and click Plans on the side menu.
  2. Select a paid plan.
  3. Open the Prices folder and click the + Add button. A new page displays.

1) Adding a Setup Fee

The new page has blank fields. Fill in the top part of the page with your own fee and payment structure. In this example, I set a recurring annual fee of $999.

Scroll down to the Setup fees heading. Enter a name for the label and an amount. The checkout page automatically updates the first payment total and displays the recurring fee.

Once it all looks good, go to the top of the page. Click the Create Price button and then Create new price in the confirmation popup.

2) Check the Results

Go to your site's checkout page. You'll see the setup fee listed as a separate line item, which means it isn't included in the annual recurring fee.

That's it.

Now you're ready to charge a setup fee.

    Hey William de Broucker, yes and no. 

    The free trial apply to the subscription, but the one-time fee will be charged immediately. The $20 charge you see below is for the setup fee. And the $3.5/mo subscription begin after the 14 day free trial
