As a publisher or operations admin using Pelcro,
I experience that all gift subscriptions are treated as one-time purchases, regardless of the planโs renewal configuration,
which results in inability to offer auto-renewing gift subscriptions and inconsistent renewal behavior compared to standard subscriptions.
As a publisher or subscription admin,
I want gift subscriptions to inherit their renewal behavior from the selected pricing plan,
so that one-time and auto-renewing gift subscriptions are supported natively and behave predictably.
A feature is done when:
โ Given a pricing plan with renewal_type = self-renew, (NOTHING CHANGES)
when a gift subscription is created using this plan,
then the gift subscription remains one-time and does not auto-renew, matching current behavior.
โ Given a pricing plan with renewal_type = auto-renew,
when a gift subscription is created using this plan,
then the gift subscription auto-renews according to the planโs billing cycle using Pelcroโs standard renewal and dunning logic.
โ This change will impact API, specifically subscription creation and renewal logic for gift subscriptions in the backend.
โ This solution will include the following limitations:
Existing one-time gift subscriptions are not retroactively converted to auto-renewing
Renewal behavior is determined only at subscription creation time
No UI changes are included as part of this feature
No mixed renewal behavior within a single gift subscription is supported
