 * Hello Mark,and thank you for your great work adding subscriptions to WooCommerce.
 * I installed your plugin yesterday, so bear with me, if the following topics have
   been mentioned before.
 * One topic is regarding Subscription length.
 * If you choose a subscription length for e.g. six months, you would expect to 
   see and pay for the total amount for a six months subscription at Checkout. But
   subscribers are only charged for the first month at a time. in that way, subscribers
   are not committed to pay for the six months period, they have signed up for, 
   but can choose to cancel the subscription after a month by not paying the renewal
   fee?
 * The second issue is in the shop, where users can choose quantity, and by that
   signing up for multiple subscriptions of the same product, which should not be
   possible.
 * Thanks
 * Regards
    Carsten

 * Hi Carsten,
 * There is no onetime payment possible. Subscription billing will be happened on
   specified recurring interval only. multiple subscriptions of the same product
   can be resricted by enabling “Sold individually”

 * The subscription can automatically be expired by defining the period i.g. 1 month
   in the Subscription length dropdown, but the payment is not?
 * Is this recurring payment interval controlled by QuickPay or the plugin?

 * Hi Mark, I am still waiting for an answer to this, to me, important question:
 * > The subscription can automatically be expired by defining the period i.g. 1
   > month in the Subscription length dropdown, but the payment can not?
 * How does this relate?

 * What is this option worth if the payments continues for the customers?

 * Hi [@carsten-lund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/carsten-lund/)
 * Once this limit reaches, the subscription will expire from Payment Option as 
   well as the plugin will be triggering a subscription cancellation request to 
   the payment gateway. _( This workflow (cancel) is not tested OK with PayPal )_

 * As I read this, the plugin will cancel the payment?

 * Yes, the plugin will not make payment request anymore.

 * Thanks, so this earlier statement is not valid anymore?

 * Hi [@carsten-lund](https://wordpress.org/support/users/carsten-lund/)
 * Once the subscription is cancelled, then the plugin will not make payment request
   anymore.
