This variation of Register a new account starts the account on a trialing subscription so the user can get in without entering payment details.

​
When to use this

Use this flow for self-serve trial sign-ups. The account is created in a trialing state and converts to a paid subscription when the trial ends or payment information is added.

​
Request

Send the same Account body as Register a new account, referencing the trial-eligible Plan and omitting PaymentInformation.
The trial length comes from the plan. Outseta sets the trial end date from the trial period configured on the referenced Plan — a RenewalDate sent in the registration body is not honored at sign-up. To change when a trial ends, use Extend a trial after the account is created.BillingRenewalTerm is the post-trial billing cadence: 1 Monthly, 2 Yearly, 3 Quarterly, 4 One-time. See Register a new account for the full Account schema and the interactive playground.
