Sample HTML Code for a Modify Subscription Button
The sample HTML code in this topic illustrates a Modify Subscription button, which lets
subscribers convert their current subscriptions to a new set of terms. Modify Subscription
buttons are useful for letting subscribers upgrade from one subscription level to another. The
subscription number remains the same as before; only the terms of the subscription change.
The sample code illustrates a Modify Subscription button with these features:
z A subscription price of $69.95 USD
z A 6-month billing cycle
z No limit on the number of billing cycles
z Subscribers can modify their current subscriptions to the above terms only; they cannot
sign up for additional, new subscriptions while keeping their current subscriptions.
The subscription ends only when canceled by the merchant or the subscriber.
