Unfortunately, this is not available on Shopify at the moment.

If you invoice a customer for a subscription product, Shopify will process this as a one time purchase.

We recommend not using the invoicing system for subscription products.

  • We offer the ability to sell memberships with Ongoing (for non physical products)

  • When setting up the product on Shopify , you can specify that it is a non-physical product, and this will make Shopify skip over the 'shipping' step on the checkout process.

  • One way you could do a workaround for invoicing is to simply email the customer a link to the product URL, and they would be able to checkout on their own.

  • For monthly subscriptions, Ongoing will create an order every month every time we charge the customer, which can be used for record keeping.
