Subscriptions

Topic summary

Main issue: A merchant uses Stripe as a third‑party payment gateway and needs an app to enable subscriptions (recurring billing). They cannot use Shopify Payments, which “doesn’t allow it” for their situation.

Latest update: Shopify plans to support subscriptions with Stripe in Q4 this year, with an expectation of an announcement soon based on past delivery timelines.

Interim option: A demo of Awtomatic Subscriptions was offered as a potential solution while waiting for native support.

Status and next steps:

  • No confirmed, immediate app solution for Stripe-based subscriptions was identified in the thread.
  • Action item: Interested parties can request a demo of Awtomatic to evaluate fit until Shopify’s Stripe subscription support is released.

Key terms:

  • Stripe: Third‑party payment gateway.
  • Shopify Payments: Shopify’s native payment gateway.
  • Subscriptions: Recurring billing for products or services.

Resolution: Open/ongoing; pending Shopify’s Q4 update on Stripe support.

Hi, I am using Stripe as payment method, but i cant find any app that allows me to have subscription. I cant use Shopify payments cause they dont “allow” it.

So my questions is, i have stripe as a thrid part payment, is there any APP that i could use to have subscriptions with stripe?

Thank you, hope to find some answers.

Stripe is on the roadmap for shopify subscription support in Q4 this year and they’ve been pretty good at delivering on schedule. I’d expect to hear about Stripe support soon.

In the mean time, if you’re interested I could set you up with a demo of Awtomatic Subscriptions : )
