We only ship products to our customers during a certain time of the month (or particular day of the month). How can this be setup?

We only ship products to our customers during a certain time of the month (or particular day of the month). How can this be setup? 

Consider selling a 6-month subscription for monthly magazine issues for which you wish to bill your customers on the 25th of the month and ship issues on the 10th, every month. Further, based on when the customer signs up during the month, say you wish to ship the first issue as follows (subject to payment):

Sign-up Period Shipping Day for the First Issue
1st - 10th 10th
11th - 15th Same as payment day
16th - end of the month 10th of next month
We have migrated to new Self-Serve Calendar Billing configuration from 23 March 2023. Self-Serve Calendar Billing allows you to add multiple Site-level & Plan-level configurations also supports Yearly billing frequency. With this new configuration, you can manage both SaaS and E-Commerce business. Besides, the Advance trigger allows you to set calendar billing for specific events. Reach out to our support to enable this feature on your site.

Moreover, if the payment for the subscription is delayed beyond say, 15th, you wish to cancel the first shipment.

Then you would configure Chargebee as follows:

  1. Enable calendar billing with

    • Calendar billing date: 25th
    • Billing cutoff date: 15th
  2. Configure Chargebee Orders as:

    • Shipping date: 10th
    • Shipping cutoff: 15th
