+ Adding subscription details
+ </h4>
+
+ <p>
+ When you add a subscription to a product list, you must define its billing
+ period. All other settings related to subscriptions are optional. The
+ following list shows each property that you can set:
+ </p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dt>Billing period</dt>
+ <dd>
+ <p>
+ Sets the frequency at which a user is charged while their subscription
+ is active.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ If the billing period for the new subscription is Seasonal, you must
+ specify when the season starts and ends using the <strong>Start
+ date</strong> and <strong>End date</strong> options. The subscription is
+ active only between these two dates.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ To allow users to activate a seasonal subscription for a discounted price
+ after the season begins, you can provide prorated pricing by selecting
+ <strong>Add Prorated Price</strong>. In the text boxes that appear after
+ you select this option, specify a discounted price for your subscription,
+ as well as the first date during the season when users can activate the
+ subscription for the discounted price. You can set multiple prorated
+ prices for a single subscription, with each price point taking effect on
+ a different start date.
+ </p>
+
+ <p class="note">
+ <strong>Note:</strong> After you activate a subscription, you cannot
+ change the subscription's billing period. For a seasonal subscription,
+ this restriction means that you also cannot change the season's start and
+ end dates. However, you can still add, change, and remove the prorated
+ prices that you've associated with a seasonal subscription.
+ </p>
+ </dd>
+
+ <dt>Free trial period</dt>
+ <dd>
+ Sets the number of days that users can access the subscription for free
+ after they first activate it. The trial period must be at least 7 days.
+ </dd>
+
+ <dt>Grace period</dt>
+ <dd>
+ Determines the amount of time that the user can continue accessing the
+ subscription after their payment is declined. If the user doesn't fix their
+ payment issue after the grace period has ended, their access to the
+ subscription is revoked.
+ </dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ <p>
+ To learn more about how you can manage subscriptions using the In-app Billing
+ service, see the

+ Subscriptions</a> guide.
