[#2734] Subscription Start Date was created by LindaGLS
Is there a way to create a starting DAY for a subscription? Our subscriptions run 7 days, but they are exact days, not 7 days from the time someone subscribes. They run Tuesday - Monday.

Subscriptions are auto-debit through Authorize.net and here's the scenario we are trying to prevent from happening:

Set Up: Users are subscribing to Organic Food Delivery. Delivery takes place on Thursdays, however, the cut off day for someone to place their first order or to upgrade their order is on Monday at midnight of the same week.

What we doesn't want to happen:

A new user starts a subscription on Wednesday, however their first delivery won't be until the following week Thursday. We don't want the customer paying their subscription ahead by 8 days...

I believe this is possible by setting the duration for your plans on the pricing tab to "Today and Next 7 calendar days".

Using Today and next 7 days, wouldn't we have to change the plan duration every day to make the start day always on a Tuesday?

Unfortunately CBSubs has no such feature. I however have added a feature ticket for further review as is a very good idea.

Super good! My client will be very happy to hear that it is being considered as a future feature.

Hi. I see a ton of improvements have been made on CBSubs. Congratulations! Was wondering if #2734 was ever added to allow for a specific start day of a subscription. I haven't seen that it was added but could have overlooked it.

If not, is it still on your radar? This feature is the only thing preventing my client from being able to use CBSubs successfully on their site since their subscriptions are for an actual service that runs Tuesday - Monday.
