API Version
Product Catalog
Library

When offering subscriptions of products or services, each entity that is made available for sale is represented by an “item” object. Items therefore represent the various plans, addons or charges that you offer as part of your product catalog. Non-metered items are charged upfront in Chargebee, while metered items are charged at the end of the billing cycle, based on usage.

Types of Items

There are three types of items and they’re listed and explained here. Examples for each type are provided in the table that follows.

Plan-items or Plans

Plan-items are items that have a recurring charge and are an essential component of any subscription. Typically, plans represent a principal or key product or service in your catalog. They are charged at recurring intervals and often have other products or services offered along with them as addons and charges.

Addon-items or Addons

Addon-items are items that are sold along with a plan and are charged for at recurring intervals.

Charge-items or Charges

Charge-items are items that are sold along with a plan but charged once (or each time) a specified event occurs. A charge can also be applied to a customer without attaching to a subscription.

Examples

To help understand each type of item better, listed below are some examples of items from different business domains:

Non-Metered (SaaS)

  • Item Family: A project management solution.
  • Plans:
    • A “basic” plan offering a small set of features.
    • A “business” plan offering a larger set of features.

    • A reporting plugin, available with both the above plans.
  • Charges:
