*Product Subscription feature is available for merchants using the Customization module. For more information and details on pricing, please contact the Online Merchant Success team.

For customers that have long-term subscriptions for your store's products, creating a subscription product allows them to check out just once and then pay for and receive the subscription product at fixed intervals. When the product subscription status changes to "Ended", you can choose whether to send an End Subscription Notification to the customer.

This article will cover the following: 

 

1. Check your plan 

In the upper right corner of the store backstage, go to [Hello, OOO] > [My Subscription & Billing] to view the store's plans and modules.

  1. Under the Paid Subscription, there are Plans and Modules. Please check if you have both an e-Commerce plan, and the Customization module. If you have these, you can go directly to Step 2. How to set up an End Subscription Notification
