Feature tags

Immediately identify subscription features with feature tags

Updated over a week ago

Feature tags allow you to easily manage and identify which features your customer should have access to, without any manual effort. You can link feature tags to your plans, add-ons and allowances. You can also add tags to individual subscriptions on an ad-hoc basis. Feature tags can be removed from your plans, add-ons and allowances at any time, so that you can easily update which features are included.

Feature tags are addressable by the API, so you can instantly check for a particular feature tag before giving a customer access to a feature. For example, a gym might check for the 'water' feature tag when a customer enters their membership number at the water vending machine or a co-working space might check for the 'floor37' feature tag when a customer swipes their membership card against a security sensor.

Linking feature tags to your plans

When creating or editing your plans, you're able to add choose what features you want to be available to customers who subscribe to the plan. This is found under advanced plan settings.

Any feature tags that you add here will be associated with both the customer and their specific subscription when they subscribe to the plan.

Linking feature tags to your add-ons and allowances

When creating or editing your add-ons and allowances, you're able to add the features that make up the add-on or allowance.

Any feature tags that you add here will be associated with customers that have the add-on or allowance added to their subscription.

Adding feature tags to individual subscriptions

Under the feature tags tab of an individual subscription page, you're able to see what features are included from the subscription's plan, add-on and allowance. You'll also be able to add custom tags for that specific subscription.

Using the API, you can call the Add feature tags request and the Delete feature tag request to add and remove custom feature tags from a subscription.

Checking a customer's feature tags

You can use the API to check for feature tags. The Customer feature tags query returns all feature tags associated with an individual customer, including custom feature tags and feature tags under subscribed plans including add-ons and allowances.
