- Sign-up fee: This is an optional one-time fee charged when someone first subscribes.
- Regular price: Set the price you want subscribers to pay per period.

- Grant access to downloadable products after purchase?

- Stock management at product level?
: This option appears if you are selling physical products with subscriptions and are using WooCommerce inventory management.
→ If yes: Leave this option checked so that each variation of the product has its own inventory.
