Subscription products

Picante shows a Purchase options choice on products that have subscription plans. Your subscription app creates the plans.

Set up your plans first

1. Install the Shopify Subscriptions app. See Shopify Subscriptions.
2. Create a plan and add it to your products.
3. Open one of those products on your store. Check that Purchase options shows.

What shoppers see

• One-time purchase, unless the product is sold only as a subscription.
• Each plan with its name and price.
• A price for each delivery, when it differs from the plan price.

The price on the page changes to match the plan they pick. In the cart, the plan name shows next to Plan.

Turn the choice off

1. Open the theme editor.
2. Select the page picker, then Products, then Default product.
3. Select Product information in the left panel.
4. Select Buy buttons.
5. Switch Show subscription options off. It is on by default.
6. Select Save.

Good to know

• Turn it off only if your subscription app adds its own choice. Shoppers should not see two.
• Picante only shows the plans. How often you ship, discounts and billing come from your subscription app.
• If a product is sold only as a subscription, shoppers cannot add it straight from a product card. They open the product page to choose a plan.
• The quick view pop-up tells shoppers to choose a plan on the product page.
