Configuring Checkout Page and Trial Memberships in SPARK MINDS

Overview

In SPARK MINDS, setting up trial memberships and managing the checkout process is crucial for maintaining a seamless sign-up experience and ensuring trial memberships operate consistently. Below, you’ll find guidance on how to configure the checkout page, manage trial membership periods, and create sign-up links for embedding on your website.

1. Configuring Membership Templates and Trial Durations

To ensure trial memberships start and end consistently across all sign-ups:

  1. Adjust the membership template to reflect the desired trial duration. For example, if the trial lasts 89 days, the template should be set accordingly.

  2. Configure the start date of the trial for early sign-ups to align with your desired launch (e.g., all memberships starting from a predefined date).

  3. Adjust the checkout page settings to specify the deadline for sign-ups (e.g., set a final purchase date while ensuring all trials end on the same day for uniformity). This ensures: - Early sign-ups start from the set launch date. - Late sign-ups adhere to the same trial end date.

Example Configuration:

  • Set the trial start date (e.g., June 2nd).

  • Keep the checkout page open for purchases until the desired deadline for sign-ups (e.g., July 15th).

  • Ensure that all trials end on the same date (e.g., August 29th). This guarantees consistency in the trial experience for all users.

2. Managing Checkout Page Expiration Settings

The checkout page expiration allows you to control how long users can access the page to purchase trial memberships.

  • Navigate to the checkout page settings in SPARK MINDS.

  • Specify an expiration date for the checkout page to control the final date that sign-ups are allowed.

  • This setting ensures that potential members can still purchase up to the set expiration date, regardless of the trial start date.

3. Creating and Embedding Checkout Links

To make trial membership sign-ups convenient and accessible for potential members, you can create a dedicated checkout page link and embed it on your website:

  1. Create a checkout page in the SPARK MINDS application for your trial memberships.

  2. Generate the checkout link from the page settings.

  3. Embed the generated link into your website for easy access by visitors. This allows potential members to navigate directly to the trial sign-up page and complete their purchases.
