What Merchants Think

Merchants have mixed feelings about "Shopify Subscriptions". While some appreciate its user-friendly interface and simplicity, many express frustration over significant limitations, especially when dealing with more complex subscription needs. The app seems primarily catered to basic use cases, leaving more advanced users disappointed with its lack of features and flexibility.

Key Strengths

  • User-friendly setup process
  • Suitable for simple subscription models
  • Good for beginners or businesses with basic subscription needs

Common Concerns

  • Lack of API access and insufficient data analytics capabilities
  • Inability to customize subscription details or handle complex plans
  • Issues with migration and error reporting
  • Problems with inventory management and subscription order processing
  • Glitches and bugs affecting subscription updates and customer interactions
  • Limited language and customization options for international users

Final Thoughts

"Shopify Subscriptions" may serve basic needs effectively for those new to subscription models, but it falls short for businesses that demand more advanced functionality and customization. Its lack of flexibility and robust features make it less appealing to companies with intricate subscription requirements. Merchants seeking a comprehensive subscription tool might need to explore other options for a more complete solution.

only works with new account setup, where users dont have passwords, instead a code is sent to their email every time. not to be funny, but not every customer wants to have to access their emails just to log in or shop. going to have to look for alternative subscription options and found lots of issues with it too, sadly.

Doesn't work for products that are only subscription - i.e. a one time purchase is not an option. The documentation says it does this, but when you set it up as documented customers get a "Variant can only be purchased with a selling plan" error message and can not buy.

Do everyone a favor take this app down and rebuild it, it is not fit to be put on the shopify app store and is concerning it is allowed to be downloaded by its customers.

Needs to serious improvements. 1. If payment failed and customer updates their credit card there is no way customer can trigger and approve the payment again, they are left contacting us, we then cancel the subscription and then tell them to make a new one on the site. 2. Customer cant change or move the date, eg if they order every 6 weeks and want it to trigger at 5 weeks and reset the schedule from 6 weeks from manual payment they cant do it.

Customer said they want to cancel their subscription, when I looked in my subscription app it shows I have 0 contracts. All this time I thought nobody wanted to subscribe. I wonder how many people think they have a subscription to my products but instead this app is not working and making me look like an idiot and more importantly losing long term customers. This makes my business look incompetent. This should be seamless seeing as Shopify's baseline business model is subscriptions.
