Apple

Decreasing: All subscribers currently paying a higher price will pay the new price.

Increasing: You will either have the option to:

  1. Keep current price for existing subscribers

  2. Apply price change to existing subscribers.Existing subscribers will have to agree to the new price before they're charged. If they don't agree, their subscriptions won't automatically renew.

If you are increasing a subscription price within the MAZ Dashboard, please also reach out to submissions@mazsystems.com with which option you would like to move forward with.
