Subscription UX

[GoldySchreiber]

Hi All,

I am wondering if someone can tell me what subscription module(s)/app(s) can be used to create a UX such as that on www.oatbox.com?  Basically, all the subscription apps I have seen (i.e. Bold or Recharge) are robust, but work at the single item level - however oatbox.com offers the subscription frequency on the same page as where the user can choose between multiple items.  Please visit oatbox.com to see for yourself.  I am building a similar e-comm store and would like for my subscriptions to work in a similar fashion at oatbox.  Thanks in advance!

Hello @GoldySchreiber 

This merchant is using Bold Subscriptions for this flow. Most subscriptions apps provide a default widget out of the box. The customizations you see on oatbox.com were completed as customizations. You can generally build any storefront flow you'd like, I would recommend contacting an agency specializing with Shopify.

Hi JP
Thanks for the reply. Interestingly enough, I sent the Oatbox subscription page to Bold to ask if its possible with their tech but I received a reply back saying "no, it is not possible."
Can you recommend a developer whom I may speak to that you know/believe would be able to build such customization with Bold? I would love to use Bold as my subscription app!

Thanks again!

Hi @GoldySchreiber , 

I'm one of the cofounders over at Awtomatic and we specialize in this exact UX that you're referring to. Our subscription app has Build-a-box functionality among many, many other features straight out of the box! Check us out at www.awtomatic.app or apps.shopify.com/awtomatic. Also, be sure to check out our demo store (linked from the app listing page) to see the Build-a-box feature in action. Feel free to shoot me a DM or email at [email protected] and I'd be happy to walk you through a demo.

My app, BYOB allows customers to build their own bundles. Currently, we also support integrating with subscription apps like Recharge. Usually, the subscription apps offer a build-a-box feature but we try to give users another choice. 

You can take a look at our sample bundle to see how it works.

The type of subscription model set up on Oatbox is owing to the customizations made on top of the interface and functionalities that a typical subscriptions app offers to Shopify stores. While the store is using BOLD for the subscription set up, you can actually also explore Appstle Subscriptions for the same as they have the ability to build as well as customize all the key types of subscription models for ecommerce.
