Communication of Subscription Information #1: When A Subscription is Begun

The Initial Sign-Up Form

This is the form that all subscribers fill out. This is the only way that a new subscription is created. The new subscriber must enter their name, email, and credit card details. 

The form also states that the charge is “per month.” Then under the button to the right, it says, “Renews Automatically. Cancel Anytime.” This form is not designed by us but by the payment processor Stripe and is used for thousands of subscription websites. 

However, before the subscriber gets to the form, they have to select this button on our introduction page, which it states numerous times that it is a subscription site.
