FastSpring now supports immediate mid-cycle subscription changes as part of renewal invoicing workflows.

You can use this workflow when subscription changes should take effect right away. For example, you might increase the quantity partway through a billing cycle or switch to a different plan immediately.

FastSpring will automatically apply prorated credit for unused time on the original plan and calculate prorated charges for the remainder of the billing period on the new plan.

You can now transfer up to 20 active subscriptions from a source account to a target account using the new /subscriptions/transfer endpoint.

This endpoint is designed for account merge or cleanup workflows and can only be used to transfer subscriptions between accounts that belong to the same site or store.

Endpoint: POST /subscriptions/transfer
