Tiers allow publishers to create multiple options for an audience to become paid subscribers. Each tier can have its own price points, benefits, and content access levels. Ghost connects tiers directly to the publication’s Stripe account.

​
The tier object

Whenever you fetch, create, or edit a tier, the API responds with an array of one or more tier objects. By default, the API doesn’t return monthly/yearly prices or benefits. To include them in the response, use the include parameter with any or all of the following values: monthly_price, yearly_price, benefits. 
// GET admin/tiers/?include=monthly_price,yearly_price,benefits
