Offer Digital Service For Subscribed Customers

Shopify Discussion
1

Hello,

Dear community,

I wonder how this can be done the best way using shopify.

A) customers can buy monthly /yearly subscriptions

B) when a customer is subscribed he can login

C) login is done via C1) email+magic link (email send to customer) or C2) email+password

D) once logged in, the customer who is subscribed, has the option to enter a digital service

E) the digital service basically has a couple of input forms (think of a spreadsheet) and an algorithm will give back some outputs (think of a spreadsheet). The algorithm runs on a backend server and needs to access the data read /write

F) the customer should be able to choose between different instances of the digital service in a list menu , e.g., he runs multiple calculations/versions and can add new versions

Is this possible using shopify? I struggle to think about the right setup and would be happy to get some idea /feedback on tools.

Thanks and cheers!

Best Regards...

Hi @FedriBreakly !
Potentially is possible to use Shopify platform to develop your idea. But it can be complicated.

A) The mothly/yearly subscription are provided by shoipify apps, like a apps for subscription recharge. Apps example: https://apps.shopify.com/collections/checkout-subscription

B-D) That functionality also possible in Shopify. It can be developed through customer labels or tags with app that provide some automation and management tools for customers, or through some CRM integration.
There is app example to manage customers tags: https://apps.shopify.com/recurring-memberships
You can use custom logic on the pages for make page visible/hidden for some customers.

E) Algorithm on the back and can be integrated with Shopify store with shopify private app: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/apps/private-apps

F) It also possible, because you can show any data on the shopify pages. The easiest way is to use
