Question

Suggestion: @preetha It would be nice If we had owl bucks to be able to buy the monthly subscription for OS.

Answer 1

I think this would be helpful or otherwise owl bucks being one way to buy anything on OS.

Answer 2

So you're saying that we should use real life money, and buy owlbucks, and then use the owlbucks to buy subscriptions?

What's wrong with the current process of just using your money to buy a subscription.

Also keep in mind these subscriptions are $10 per month

so we would have to add a feature now for it to instead take 50 owlbucks out of the account every month... ;p

Answer 3

We'll work on this. Seems to be a sensible plan. We'll make it so you can buy a 1 year subscription upfront. Right?

Answer 4

Give us a few weeks to get this organized. We want to finish our summer upgrades and things like that.

Answer 5

Maybe this should be put in the Emporium

OpenStudy 1 Month Subscription
50 owlbucks

because $10 USD = 50 owlbucks.

Answer 6

We already got a hint from someone else that they are changing the subscriptions thing :p

Answer 7

As I suggested in earlier threads, it would benefit to have membership being bought from emporium as well as people don't always go back to settings after they have set it the first time. I am assuming most people don't even know it exists because of where it is right now, so putting it in emporium would only benefit the site.
Also as I suggested before you can have levels as in bronze, silver, and gold, or don't even put colours just put 1 month, three month, 1 year deal something like that, with extra benefits being added on each tier higher.

It doesn't really matter if you use owlbucks or cash really (maybe that should be an option for all the products hmm...), but if owlbucks can be used I think that's another benefit as you can earn owlbucks from being QH or trading what ever, it's like it's own currency XD.

Answer 8
