# Enable Subscriptions

Declare that your device management service supports subscription management.

## Discussion

Send a POST request to declare that your device management service supports subscription management. Until you enable subscription management for a token, content managers can’t purchase subscriptions into the organizational unit that the token represents.

This request takes no body. The server processes it synchronously and returns the resulting `subscriptionManagement` state.

> Note:
> You can reverse this declaration with ``doc://com.apple.devicemanagement/documentation/DeviceManagement/Disable-Subscriptions``, but only while the organizational unit has no subscriptions. After content managers purchase subscriptions into it, disabling fails until no subscriptions remain.

### Example Request and Response

**Request:**

```
curl --location --request POST 'https://vpp.itunes.apple.com/mdm/v2/subscriptions/enable' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {sToken}'
```

**Response:**

```json
{
    "mdmInfo": null,
    "subscriptionManagement": true,
    "tokenExpirationDate": "2030-11-08T22:33:22+0000",
    "uId": "2049025000431439"
}
```

To declare that an organizational unit doesn’t support subscriptions, use [`Disable Subscriptions`](/documentation/DeviceManagement/Disable-Subscriptions).
