This feature is in its Beta version now.

Country-Only-Start is a new start flow designed exclusively for digital subscriptions, currently available for NCS Circ clients and supported by the payment vendors Cybersource and Payway.

The key feature of this flow is that it allows an end user to purchase a digital subscription with minimal input—only the first name, last name, email ID, and country name are required (all mandatory fields). This makes the Country-Only-Start flow quicker and more user-friendly than the standard new start flow, offering end users a simplified and efficient experience.

Note: If the Zip code field is added to the user input fields, the Country-only flow is transformed to a Zip-Only new start. With the Zip code field, the flow will no longer be a country-only start.

The Country-Only flow

You can customize the look and feel of the Country-Only-Start flow in the CMS Presentation. Below is an example of a Country-Only-Start flow configured with the Default theme in the CMS Presentation.

The end user can still continue with the flow. For new users, a password must be entered along with the email, and the password must be re-entered for confirmation. (The user becomes registered, and the user details are stored in the Subscribe database.) Click Continue.
