Create your first product

Products define what you sell. A good first product should be simple enough to test end-to-end.

Before you start

Decide:

  • Product name.
  • Billing model.
  • Unit label.
  • Price and currency.
  • Billing period.
  • Whether tax should apply.
  • How the line should appear on invoices.

Recommended first product

For your first test, use a simple recurring product:

Field Example
Name Pro Plan
Unit label seat
Pricing model Licensed recurring
Price USD 49 per seat
Billing period Monthly
Quantity 1

After this flow works, add usage-based, tiered, annual, or hybrid pricing.

Steps

  1. Open the product catalog.
  2. Create a new product.
  3. Enter a customer-readable name and description.
  4. Choose a pricing model.
  5. Set price, currency, unit label, and billing period.
  6. Configure tax category if tax applies.
  7. Save the product.
  8. Create a test customer and subscription.
  9. Preview or generate an invoice.

Validation checklist

  • Product name is clear on the invoice.
  • Quantity and unit label make sense.
  • Price and currency are correct.
  • Tax behavior is expected.
  • Product appears in reporting.
  • Product can be retrieved through the Products API if external systems need it.
