Launching soon? This Founding Member Pre-Launch Signup Form Template lets early supporters reserve a spot and lock in a founding rate today, without paying anything until you launch. Their card is saved at signup, and billing starts when the trial period you set runs out.
Think of it as a waitlist and pre-sale in one form. It works for new apps, subscription products, studios, and online communities that want paying customers lined up before opening day, and it works with WPForms Lite.
What’s in the Founding Member Pre-Launch Signup Form Template
The form collects everything you need from early supporters:
- Founding Member Rate: The monthly price founding members lock in, with a note that nothing is charged until launch.
- How They Found You: A Multiple Choice question with an Other option, so you can see which channels bring in your earliest supporters.
- Feature Wishlist: An open question about what they’re hoping you’ll build.
- Contact Details: Name and email.
- Billing Agreement: A required checkbox confirming billing starts at launch and renews monthly.
- Payment: A Stripe card field with a note telling supporters they won’t be charged today.
The trial runs from each person’s signup date, for up to two years. Set it to the time left until your launch, and shorten it as the date gets closer so first payments land around launch day. Stripe payments on WPForms Lite include a 3% transaction fee, which upgrading to WPForms Pro removes. Pre-sale and auto-renewal rules vary by location, so check what applies before you publish.
