This tutorial is geared for a merchant who is selling services and where customers are subscribing for various levels of memberships and subscription period

In this example let's imagine a basic scenario of a video streaming service provider who is selling subscriptions to customers. We will be setting up three plans: Basic $4.99/mo ($49.99/year), Standart $7.49/mo ($74.99/year), and Premium $9.99/mo ($99.99/year)
