1. A subscription model is not a #rewards scheme.
In a rewards scheme, customers get benefits after a certain number of purchases. While in a subscription model, customers get benefits only when they pay a membership fee.

3. Introduce subscription products only if you see they will remove existing barriers between the customer and your product.
4. Create a #FOMO by offering subscribers more than regular customers.
In @Zomato 's case, they offered 1+1 on drinks and 2+2 on food in restaurants for their members.
Like @netflix did with their movies and shows.

5. When consumers see the benefit in the subscription product, they consume more, and more often.

6. Price your subscription keeping in mind the ROI of the customer.
The thumb rule here is to charge no more than 4 sales.
The customer won't see the value in your product if he doesn't receive the ROI within 3-4 sales. See how @amazon prime has priced its product.
