"Store is ineligible for subscriptions" error in post-purchase subscription app (Dev Store)

Shopify Apps
1

Hi everyone,

I’m developing a post-purchase subscription app on a Shopify development store and I’m encountering an issue at after checkout.

Details:

  • Store type: Development store

  • Payment gateway: Bogus

  • Post-purchase extension: Using add_subscription changeset

  • Problem: When the customer clicks “Pay now”, the following error appears:

    Error: Shop is ineligible for subscriptions

One-time purchases work as expected with the Bogus gateway. The issue only occurs when a subscription product is added through the post-purchase flow.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a process to enable subscription support on a dev store for testing?

I’m getting the same error in the same scenario. I’ll keep you posted if I find anything.
