  2. Customers subscribe on your public page

    A Memberships tab appears when you have active membership products.

    Customers subscribe alongside booking services.
  3. Credits reset each period

    Included sessions refresh at the start of each billing cycle. Unused sessions from the previous period do not roll over unless you configure your business policy that way outside Sway.
