Slack conversation: Internal: https://expensify.slack.com/archives/C036QM0SLJK/p1721148411167389

Action Performed:

Adding a payment card after the free trial has ended:

1. Add a payment card on an account that has ended its trial
2. Go to https://staging.new.expensify.com/settings/subscription

Adding a payment card during a free trial:

1. Create a workspace on a new account
2. Go to https://staging.new.expensify.com/settings/subscription

Expected Result:

Adding a payment card after the free trial has ended:

• The free trial banner should be completely removed.

Adding a card during a free trial:

• Remove the subtitle in the banner
• Make sure the copy under “Payment” is updated to the one used when a payment card is on file.

Actual Result:

Adding a payment card after the free trial has ended:

• There is a free banner with "add payment card" prompt showing to users who've added a payment card already.

Adding a card during a free trial:

• The subtitle still appears prompting people to add a payment card when they already have.

Workaround:

Ignore the messaging :)

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

[Free trial] Free banner with "add payment card" prompt showing to users with a payment card saved

What is the root cause of that problem?

The subtitle in TrialStartedBillingBanner and TrialEndedBillingBanner is always shown even when the default card is present.

App/src/pages/settings/Subscription/CardSection/CardSection.tsx

Lines 75 to 94 in 28a9a37

	let BillingBanner: React.ReactNode | undefined;
	if (CardSectionUtils.shouldShowPreTrialBillingBanner()) {
	BillingBanner = <PreTrialBillingBanner />;
	} else if (SubscriptionUtils.isUserOnFreeTrial()) {
	BillingBanner = <TrialStartedBillingBanner />;
	} else if (SubscriptionUtils.hasUserFreeTrialEnded()) {
	BillingBanner = <TrialEndedBillingBanner />;
	} else if (billingStatus) {
	BillingBanner = (
	<SubscriptionBillingBanner
	title={billingStatus.title}
	subtitle={billingStatus.subtitle}
	isError={billingStatus.isError}
	icon={billingStatus.icon}
	rightIcon={billingStatus.rightIcon}
	onRightIconPress={handleBillingBannerClose}
	rightIconAccessibilityLabel={translate('common.close')}
	/>
	);
	}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We should pass a prop in those component to hide the subtitle or to show a different subtitle (we need to create) when billingStatus or !isEmptyObject(defaultCard?.accountData) is true.

New info title and subtitle can be added or can be used from here:

App/src/languages/en.ts

Lines 3982 to 4045 in 5b35a06

	policyOwnerAmountOwed: {
	title: 'Your payment info is outdated',

	},

	},

	},
	cardOnDispute: ({amountOwed, cardEnding}) =>
	`You disputed the ${amountOwed} charge on the card ending in ${cardEnding}. Your account will be locked until the dispute is resolved with your bank.`,
	preTrial: {
	title: 'Start a free trial',
	subtitle: 'Almost there! Just complete your ',
	subtitleLink: 'setup checklist.',
	},
	trialStarted: {
	title: ({numOfDays}) => `Free trial: ${numOfDays} ${numOfDays === 1 ? 'day' : 'days'} left!`,
	subtitle: 'Add a payment card to continue using all of your favorite features.',
	},
	trialEnded: {
	title: 'Your free trial has ended',
	subtitle: 'Add a payment card to continue using all of your favorite features.',
	},
	},

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

We can create a new banner for showing when payment card is already added. We should also change the message and title according to if the trail has ended or started.

We might also want to change messages in PreTrialBillingBanner when card is there.

Unable to auto-create job on Upwork. The BZ team member should create it manually for this issue.

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Banner with add payment card shows up for users with a payment card already saved.

What is the root cause of that problem?

We're showing the banner regardless of the fact that if the user has added a card or not. This can be verified here.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We need to change the condition here to:

 else if (SubscriptionUtils.hasUserFreeTrialEnded() && !SubscriptionUtils.doesUserHavePaymentCardAdded()) {

For the case where the trial is still in progress and the card is added already, we can remove the subtitle here.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

None

@allroundexperts proposal LGTM, feel free to create the PR.
For QA testing remember to mention to use onyx.merge to insert the necessary values so QA can test. For QA it'll only be testable on web and desktop for now.

• I have verified the correct assignees and roles are listed above and updated the neccesary manual offers
• I have verified that there are no duplicate or incorrect contracts on Upwork for this job (https://www.upwork.com/ab/applicants//hired)
• I have paid out the Upwork contracts or cancelled the ones that are incorrect

[trjExpensify]

👋 checklist time!

[aimane-chnaif]

I'd say this is a follow-up of new feature (free trial start, free trial end), not regression.
I don't think we need regression test for this specific issue. Maybe consider when creating comprehensive regression test for "Free trial" feature.

[melvin-bot]
