Sell G Suite free trials

To support free trials for G Suite, Marketplace Managers do the following on their marketplaces:

  • Create two free editions of the existing G Suite product
  • Set free trials to automatically upgrade to paid subscriptions
  • Create a discount code to extend the free trial

Marketplace Managers and Developers create a standard free edition and an extended free edition of the G Suite product in their marketplace. They add a free trial period in the payment plan section. See Add free editions.

To automatically upgrade a free trial to a paid subscription AppDirect must enable a setting. Contact your AppDirect technical representative for more information.

Marketplace Managers can create discounts for their marketplace products. Discounts can be redeemed automatically or manually with a discount code.

Marketplace Managers must also enter a Vendor discount code when they create the extended free trial discount. If the Marketplace Manager wants to extend the free trial to a paid version of the same edition they must enter another Vendor discount code. When entering multiple Vendor discount codes to a discount use the following format: {format:"trialCode":"code1","paidCode":"code2"}. See Create discounts.
