Group Subscriptions are available as a paid add-on and requires Stripe as a payment provider. To learn how you can add this feature to your plan, email your Customer Success Manager.
What Are Group Subscriptions?
Group Subscriptions enhance existing Uscreen subscription plans by introducing a group management layer. When you create a Group Subscription, you’re setting up a group that can have multiple Members, all of whom get access to content based on the group's assigned subscription plan.
Group Subscriptions let you sell content access to businesses, schools, and organizations, enabling them to manage multiple Members under a single subscription. This is ideal for B2B sales, educational institutions, or any scenario where group access is needed.
Key Features
Create and Manage Groups
Set up a group by entering the group name and billing email.
Assign a subscription plan that defines content access for all group Members.
Start by going to Subscriptions → Groups
Invite Group Members
Share a unique invitation link with the group manager.
Group managers distribute the link to Members.
Members join by clicking the link and entering their name and email.
Optionally, restrict access by email domain (e.g., only @company.com).
Billing and Invoicing
Invoicing through Group Subscriptions is optional.
You can bill using Uscreen or use Stripe's invoicing system.
Set invoice amounts, due dates, and reminders.
Invoices are not automatically recurring. You must manually generate new invoices when needed.
Access Controls
Pause a group to restrict content access for all Members.
Regenerate the invitation link if needed.
Set a seat limit for group size, or keep it unlimited.
Track Group Subscription Analytics
Use the Groups report under Subscription Analytics to see group activity.
Apply Group Subscription filters across Content, Sales, and Subscription analytics to evaluate group performance.
Pricing and Monetization
Group Subscriptions is available as a paid add-on for $99 per month + $0.25 per group user fee per month..
Per-User Cost: Group Members are billed at a lower rate (e.g., $0.25 per Member) than standard subscribers (e.g., $0.99). When you sell group access, like to a business, school, or organization, you're usually charging less per seat, and these users often have limited access and lower overall usage.
Invoicing: You will receive an invoice on the 5th of each month for your active group users from the month prior ($0.25 x group users from previous month).
Use Case Example
A fitness instructor sells a Group Subscription to a corporate client. The client sets up a group, assigns a subscription plan, and invites employees to join. The instructor generates an invoice and sends it to the client's billing email. Employees use the invitation link to access the fitness content.
