Seeking Advice on creating a Build Your Own Box Subscription

[StephenM88]

Hey all - 

I'm looking to incorporate a build-your-own-box subscription bundle on my site, where customers can select 4 jars, 6 jars, or 8 jars of our product and then subscribe for monthly ship at a discount.  I'm wanting to include monthly swag, flavors we're testing, etc... to subscriber orders as well and am struggling with finding a solution to do this on my site.  I'm looking for something similar to this:

 Oats Overnight 

Magic Spoon 

I've looked at Recharge, Skio, Loop, Bold Subscription, etc... and am wanting to have a more custom approach with selected items moving to a preview panel on the right like the two sites above.  Can anyone recommend a frame of reference for how they were able to tweak the app code to give it the custom appearance?  I've created a test page to play with code on my site (https://udderlynuts.com/pages/custom-bundle) but I'm not sure how to tie a subscription feature, customer portal, etc... to it if done that way.  Recharge and Skio are $499 a month and I want to make sure I can reach the custom setup I'm looking for before spilling that kind of money.  Just looking for guidance on where to start.

Thank you,

Stephen

Hey @StephenM88 ,

The frontend of these apps can be customised in great depth for the first purchase. But it is the recurring purchase subscription management that becomes a bit difficult to handle. 

From what I know at my time at Loop, they have a publically available API that allows you to build the UI you want for the first purchase, but you're somewhat limited in option to what you can customise on the post purchase side of things since all these apps use an app proxy (a way of showing a page they've built) on your store. 

Fairly sure you can get most of the functionality sorted out regardless of which app you plan to use. 

If you need further assistance / help - feel free to reach out on DM.

Regards
