Different Pricing based on selection - Is there a better way

    I have a form in which people pay for after school care.  The price they pay is based upon the program they want.  For example, AM Care 1 day a week might be $200/month and AM Care 2 days a week might be $250 etc.  We have 3 different program types all of which could be 1-5 days.

    I had created selections for the program and number of days and then was going to put rules to this to determine the price.  This means there will be a very large number of rules.  I would do products with variants but I must be able to break this down into monthly payments (subscriptions) and as I have read product with variants don't work with subscriptions.

    So what options do I have other then having a very very long list of rules?


    Thanks

    I think it will be much simpler if you just layout all the variants/products all at once for selections. So you will not have to result to creating condition rules to generate all variants.

    And then the user can just select the item in the Sell Subscription part on your form.

    I made a test form base on this concept. Please check it here https://www.jotform.com/81948118766975

    As you can see on the test form, the My Products layout all the possible product variants. Base on the selected variants, it calculates an equivalent Sell Subscription item.

    The users will only select one sell subscription item version of the my products.

    The real purpose of the Sell Subscription is to be able to have the recurring payments option which Sell Products doesn't have.

    I hope this help. Let us know how we can be of further assistance.

    Thanks... I am trying that option.  did you get the weekly payment subscription and the one-time payment on the same form?  The way mine is setup once I say I am selling subscription payments then I can only do subscriptions (of different time periods, weekly, monthly, quarterly etc) but I don't see how I would get the one-time payment in there.  It would be very helpful to be able to have both on the form.


    Thanks

    I figured out how to get the one time payment.  Along the same lines, is there anyway to set a maximum number of months?  For example they can make monthly payments for 1 to 10 months but no more than 10.  From what I can tell it is either any number of months or you set the number and it is not changed by the user.

    Thanks

    I am not sure how you meant. Please elaborate more and we will check.

    But you do can set the Subscription Period (Monthly) and the Number of Payments (10).

    In this case the setup will be maximum of 10 months.

    I hope this help.

    If you set the number of payments then everyone MUST pay for that period of time.  We need to be able for people select 1, 2, 3,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 months.  Basically they can pick how many months they want to pay for things but no more than 10 months.

     

    Here is further explanation:

     

    We allow people to pay their yearly after school care anywhere from 1 month (the entire year) up to 10 months.  So one person might want to pay the total in 6 months, another person want to pay in 3 months etc.  As I understand the subscription piece, if I set the number of months to 10 then there is no option for people they must pay over 10 months.  That won't work.  So I believe my only other option is to not put a limit.  Then they could select 22 months.  That doesn't work for us either.  So I was looking for a way that I could give like a not to exceed number and the person could pay for up to that number of months but can not select a larger number.

     

    Does that make sense?

    Thanks

    Thank you for the explanation. I understand now.

    The User Selected option for Number of payments is max at 52. There is no option for the user to set the max option.

    This is not possible at this time.

    The most I can do now is to send a feature request ticket for it to the next level support.

    But I cannot give you any guarantee at this time as to when it will be available. The feature will depend on the number of our users who are also looking for the same feature applied on the current existing features. 

    Thanks.
