Extremely interested as well. We’ve been waiting for this major release for months now. Is there any chance our store can test Stripe subscriptions before general availability, as beta testers for example?
Topic summary
Issue: Merchants in regions without Shopify Payments (e.g., Poland/EU) want to sell subscriptions using Stripe at Shopify checkout.
Shopify’s stance: Stripe is not supported for subscriptions yet. Roadmap shifted from Q2 2021 to Q4 2021, with an expectation of general availability by mid-December; later community posts indicate a slip to Q1 2022.
Interim guidance: PayPal support for subscriptions would arrive earlier than Stripe, so merchants needing subscriptions sooner were advised to consider PayPal. Several users requested beta access and emphasized urgency for EU stores.
Latest update in thread: A third party reports “Easy Pie Checkout for Shopify” now enables subscriptions and payments using methods supported by a merchant’s Stripe account, sharing a YouTube playlist as reference. (External video links are central to that proposed solution.)
Status: No confirmed official Shopify launch of Stripe subscriptions within the thread. The discussion remains open, with an unofficial third‑party workaround presented while awaiting Shopify’s official Stripe integration.
