Frequently asked questions about subscriptions

Updated over 2 months ago

How far in advance will Turnstile show a subscription is ending?

Active subscriptions will have an expiry badge up to 120 days before the final day of service.

How do I duplicate a subscription?

To duplicate a subscription, use the sidebar navigation and click the Customers dropdown and select All subscriptions. Locate the desired subscription in the list then click the three dots icon on the far right and click Duplicate from the dropdown. A message will appear in the top right corner prompting you to Edit Subscription.

Can I have a customer sign for a subscription amendment?

Currently Turnstile does not support E-signature for amendments. If you need a signature, we recommend creating a new quote and selecting E-Signature as the acceptance method.

Why can I not amend a subscription?

Only subscriptions with the Upcoming or Active status can be amended.

What is the difference between a "Lapsed" subscription and an "Inactive" subscription?

A Lapsed subscription is a subscription that passed its end date. An Inactive subscription is a subscription that was terminated and reached its termination date.

How do I change the currency for a subscription?

To change the currency for a subscription, click the dollar icon in the bottom right corner of the Pricing Terms section on the Edit subscription page. You cannot change the currency for a subscription that has already been created.

Can I turn on auto-renew for an active subscription?

Yes, you will need to amend the subscription and toggle on Auto-renew in the "Pricing Terms" section of the amendment details page.

Why does the product name on my subscription not match the product name on the invoice?

If the product name for a subscription is different from the associated invoices, it may indicate that the catalog product name was edited when the quote or subscription was created.

What will happen to the subscription invoices when I create an amendment?

All invoices associated with the former version of the subscription will automatically be marked as cancelled and new draft invoices will be created to reflect the subscription amendment.

What payment methods are supported by Turnstile?

Turnstile supports payment processing through Stripe and off-band payment methods.

Stripe payment methods:

  • ACH and bank transfers

  • Credit and debit cards

Note: Turnstile does not support Stripe Link. Most customers prefer ACH, credit, or debit to reduce transaction fees.

To use Stripe payment methods, set Stripe as your invoice provider during quoting, when adding a subscription, or in Invoice Settings for existing customers. You can choose to automatically pull payments or prompt customers to pay manually.

Off-band payment methods:

  • Bank transfers outside of Stripe

  • Check payments

  • Cash payments

To use off-band payment methods, set "Turnstile" or "Manual" as your invoice provider using the same configuration options above. You'll then mark invoices as paid manually by going to Invoice Workflow and selecting "Mark Paid" next to the issued invoice.
