Shopping cart software with recurring billing features: ProductCart & SubscriptionBridge

ProductCart & SubscriptionBridge

New recurring billing system integrates seamlessly with ProductCart

ProductCart v4.1 and above include built-in support for Early Impact's new recurring billing system. In your ProductCart-powered store you can now easily flag a product as a subscription, and - when an order is placed - a recurring payment profile is automatically created.

SubscriptionBridge takes care of managing the subscription from then on, making it easy to do things like:

  • Send nice-looking, HTML e-mail notifications in all sorts of scenarios
  • Automatically follow up with a customer when a recurring payment does not go through successfully
  • Edit a subscription (add a feature, apply a discount, make special adjustments, etc.)
  • View a report of subscriptions for which there is an outstanding balance to be paid
Selling subscriptions and one-time purchase items

Sell one-time purchase items and subscriptions at the same time

We recently improved the integration between ProductCart and SubscriptionBridge so that you can now sell, at the same time, a product/service that requires recurring payments (e.g. service contract, extended warranty, club membership, etc.) and one-time purchase items.

For example, on the Early Impact software store you can purchase, at the same time, a ProductCart license (one time purchase) and a Technical Support Plan (recurring billing item). Note: there are some limitations to this feature. See the ProductCart - SubscriptionBridge integration documentation.

Much more than just recurring payments

SubscriptionBridge works on top of popular, robust recurring payment systems such as Authorize.Net's Automated Recurring Billing (ARB) and PayPal's Website Payments Pro recurring payments. It adds a tremendous amount of features (e.g. see what it adds to Authorize.Net's ARB system) that are focused on:

  • Automating customer service tasks, from outstanding balance reminders to "credit card expiring" notifications
  • Allowing subscription changes by both the merchant and the customer
  • Allowing external applications to be notified of and react to certain events (e.g. recurring payment failed)
  • And many more recurring billing feature >>
