# Edit membership selling plan fields

For tiers with a recurring paid subscription, selling plans get created in your store to accommodate payments. Some settings data attached to these plans have text that shows up on your storefront website and Shopify admin. \
\
These are editable on the selling plans fields form page. You can access the selling plans form page from a menu item link on the tiers overview page, as shown below.

## Fields&#x20;

Fields with an asterisk `*` are currently editable. Let us know if there are more selling plans fields you want us to make editable through this page.

#### Plan name\*&#x20;

Displayed on cart and checkout pages as line item text next to subscription product . \
To best match Shopify's content guidelines, it is recommended that the payment amount and frequency  are specified here - E.g. "$15 every month".<br>

#### Plan description

Not usually relevant to Inveterate selling plans, as as most themes only display this field on the product page, and Inveterate subscriptions are by default sold from the membership landing page instead. \
\
Merchants might use this field for promotional text, or to include a link to their subscription policy.&#x20;

For more information, check out [Shopify's docs for this field.](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/pricing-payments/subscriptions/subscription-ux-guidelines#selling-plan-details)

#### Group name\*&#x20;

Not usually relevant to Inveterate selling plans, as as most themes only display this field on the product page, and Inveterate subscriptions are by default sold from the membership landing page instead. \
\
According to Shopify's guidelines, selling plan group names should make clear the benefit of signing up for a subscription, and are used to store a bit of marketing text to incentivize the customer to purchase the subscription version of the product versus the regular one. For example, "Subscribe and save 10%". \

#### Group description

Not usually relevant to Inveterate selling plans, as as most themes only display this field on the product page, and Inveterate subscriptions are by default sold from the membership landing page instead. \
\
If left unset, Shopify will automatically output **Customer can choose:** and loop through the selling plan group's associated selling plans, outputting `SellingPlan.name.` E.g.&#x20;

> Customer can choose
>
> * `[SellingPlan.name]`\ <br>
> * `[SellingPlan.name]`
