Help creating a promo

How can I make possible to create a  hosting plan for $0.01 for the first month, and then WHMCS charges the recurring price of $9.99 without using promo codes.

from settings, I don't think you can - any particular reason for not wanting to use a promo code ? you could embed the code in the add to cart link if you had to, so the user wouldn't need to manually enter it.

Discount Center might be a third-party option if you don't want to use promo codes.

possibly you could use an Invoice Paid hook to update the recurring price after payment of the first invoice, e.g from 0.01 to 9.99 - from that point on, the renewal invoices should be for 9.99;

you could have 2 products and get a third party addon to auto-upgrade between them, but that seems like overkill to me for this situation.

I am starting with Facebook Ads, and I want visitors start any plan for 1 cent, but the renewal to be the regular price. I don't want them to copy and paste a code because that would add an additional step to complete the order. It's unbelievable WHMCS doesn't include that option.

if there was one price override promo code that applied to multiple products, then you could add that to a cart link - either generic or to one of those products...

https://docs.whmcs.com/Linking_to_WHMCS#Order_Links

assuming the promo applied to the products in the cart, it would be applied automatically with no need for the user to enter the code manually.

For some reason it is not working. I created the "price override" promo, and I am using URLs in this format:

https://example.com/whmcs/cart.php?a=add&pid=3promocode=fb01

https://example.com/whmcs/cart.php?promocode=fb01

None of them applies the discount during the checkout process.

I can see the promo code exists on your site, but I don't think it's been configured correctly (if it should be applied to pid#3)...

Actually, I am applying the discount to any of the hosting plans I currently have available, so customer can choose the plan they like. I am overriding the initial price for 1 cent.

Here the setting are currently have:
