Does this incentivize you to subscribe to the HB Monthly Bundle now?
hm
This 10% discount is only available to active Humble Monthly subscribers and expires when a user unsubscribes.
so once you unsubscribe, the 10% discount terminates

im not sure if you can subscribe without paying. I thought if you aren't subscribed already, and then you do subscribe, they charge you

If you're already subscribed, they charge on the Friday preceding the first Friday of the next month (release day), so, in a non-leap year, the earliest that could happen is for a March monthly when 01 March is a Friday, making the charge date 02-22. This year, 01 April is a Friday, so the payment will be automatically deducted on 03-25 for subscribers who haven't prepaid for April.
10% isn't usually a very big discount, but when combined with the "build a ??? bundle out of selected games" discounts for 3-4 items, the additional 10% can make those build-a-bundle purchases very inexpensive (the deals to which I refer have occurred in the HB store over the past few or several days).

Right. I noticed that. That's why the increasing discount on more items helps. The current "roguelike2" charges $1.80 each for three $9.99 items (HM discount+80% off 3). Adding another $9.99 game (4 in all) makes each game $1.64 (HM+82%) and five $9.99 games are $1.35 each with a HM+85% off. The total price of the bundle can be reduced by changing one of the games to a $7.99 game (cost: $1.08) and one to a $4.99 game (cost: $0.67).
That's all I was pointing out... that the final game prices are reduced more than they would be otherwise. shrug :)

When you subscribe for the first time, you are charged immediately. Deferred payment is only for existing subscribers going into the next month.

Not a bad incentive. Not big enough to make it look like free candy, but a 1.1× multiplier on the discounts can push some games on sales to really lucrative territories for ROW people.

The discount stacks multiplicatively.
You had me checking the dictionary for this one...

As an incentive to get you to subscribe for their monthly bundles, HB will now offer a 10% off (stackable) discount for all Store purchases.
