Introduction
A Subscription Plan allows merchants to define subscription based purchase options for products.This feature enables customers to select a delivery frequency such as daily, weekly, or monthly, removing the need to place repeat orders manually.
Subscription plans help how often a product is delivered and whether it can be purchased as a subscription only or as a one-time purchase alongside a subscription.
Why It Matters
Subscription plans help merchants to manage orders in a structured way.
They ensure consistent order schedules, predictable revenue, and reduced customer effort during repeat purchases.
Key operational benefits include:
Standardized subscription frequency management
Clear separation between subscription-only and mixed purchase products
Improved customer retention through automated deliveries
