change re-bill date in workflow

Gene Monterastelli
I would love to be able to change the rebill date in a workflow.
The primary functionality for me would be for an invisible funnel, were they get access to an event for free, but are billed for the event 72 hours after the event. Right now the rebill date (or the bill date after a free trial) is set to a number of days. So I either have to update the product daily OR I have to change the bill date to 72 hours after the event.
It would be great if I could do that in a workflow

Set specific date to charge for a product.

Lia Martinez Riveira
Have a event or product in the "invisible funnel mode" - The idea is to be able to set up a product that can be free now (but collect the card info) or, for example, 1 USD, and charge the rest later, after the event date or a set number of days later. "If you like it you pay, if not cancel and won't be charged" Like the invisible funnel.
So, on a specific date, charge the rest as a one-time fee (for the event) or as a subscription.

Hey Lia Martinez Riveira Thank you for your feedback and adding this request. That's a great idea for a specific date to be charged. We don't have that yet. We can keep this open for others to vote on and for our dev team to review.
What you can do right now is us a free or a paid trial and set a specific number of days once they signup for them to be charged. It will ask their card info, then charge them at the end of the trial if they don't cancel.
If you have any questions about this please reach out to our support team for help. Thank you for your cooperation and enthusiasm!

Automation to extend free trial length either through a workflow or using an upgrade function

Drew Perdichizzi
Extending Free Trial Length: A way to automate this process with a workflow, or a way to offer an upgrade that extends the free trial length or pushes back the first billing date.
My Use Case: I am running a viral contest. There are 3 levels of "Free Memberships" which are free trials. They can win 1-month, 2-month, and 3-month free memberships by reaching certain point totals in the contest. When they register their 1-month prize, they are signing up for a free trial that will then bill them after the 30-days.
When they win the 2-month prize, I want to create a way that they can upgrade their free trial and push back the billing date by the extra 30 days.
And then again, the same thing for the 3-month prize.
