Customize the Billing Frequency options when creating a new product

nicolerohrer

Some customers have alternative billing situations for their products that do not fit within our current billing frequency options below. It would be nice if they had the option to create other intervals. One customer needs a five year option for example and has to find a workaround.

Would be very useful to have a billing frequency of "per instance", meaning each time you provide a service, the charge will be billed. 

Thank you

Hey @VictoriaGumaer , commenting for a customer here.

While I see the three and five year billing frequency being an options for line items (which are great), this does not apply to payment links. This can sometimes be misleading for the customer since payment links/ line items are complementary products that are often being used together.

Kindly request for us to update the billing frequency for our payment links too. Thank you!

The only way our company operates is by providing services at a weeklt rate (every 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks). 🙁

Are there any further developments on adding a weekly option to the billing period? This is a key limitation for a number of companies we are currently prospecting.

+1 I note the complixity of non-12 month divisible billing frequencies, but here's another vote for one. In our scenario, we find customers often prefer a free subscription period over a subscription discount. For example, rather than sell a two-year subscription with a 20% discount, we often sell a two-year subscription with 5 free months. This, of course, make the billing frequency every 17 months. This has an added benefit of maximizing our revenue. Being able to set a custom number of months in the billing frequency would open doors for us.

I am needing to have both weekly and fortnightly payment frequency options.

I'm going to upvote this. Our company bills at ad-hoc, flat rate,  hourly, weekly, montly, and about any other way you can think of. Not having a way to do ad-hoc, hourly and weekly to qoute is really causing people issues to use HubSpot fully.

This is showing a status of "being reviewed". At this point, would it be possible for Hubspot to provide some sort of an update?

Good luck with this. Hubspot has been sitting on this feature 5+ years with -0- progress. We are close to using an alternative solution.

We need this for 14 months, and far more options should be available!

Get excited people, weekly and every 2 week frequencies are now live  - Introducing Weekly Billing Frequencies for Products & Line Items

Apologies in advance to anyone after billing frequencies of hourly, daily or "every 4 weeks", but who knows, any progress on this is good progress right? Perhaps additional frequencies will follow depending on the demand for them / feedback / comments / upvotes.


@VictoriaGumaer might be able to provide more info?

The ability to be able to add deals on an hourly, daily or weekly rate is a pretty fundamental requirement for any business providing a service.  It seems incredible that this functionality does not exist in a CRM that is so widely used.

Agree. Same situation here. Upvote!

Any news on when an hourly option might be included for billing frequencies?

I would simply like the ability/flexibility to edit itemized items on invoices. For example, when billing hourly for 8.4 hours, it is beneficial to edit the "Qty" label to "Hours" and use minimum increments of 0.1 instead of whole numbers. Example of Quickbooks invoicing capabilities attached. Custom Itemized List Labels.png

What about a one-time freqency?  Can we add that??

Hello, 

 

When do you think HubSpot would be able to implement a 4 week bill frequency? 

 

Thanks so much!

@VictoriaGumaer Where are we at with adding "hourly" as an option? Especially for many of us that provide Consulting and other hourly service related services.

Additionally, being able to do up to two decimal places for the quantity.

 

These are all very important things for those in the Service Industry.
