John Bell & Croyden review for Shopify Subscriptions
May 6, 2025
The app is fine for shops with small inventories with prices that never change, nor ever run promotions. For larger inventories.. let's just say Happy Clicking. You have to click each product individually to add it to a group. Why can't I just add collections? Then, if you are running a short term promotion, when the customer creates the subscription, they keep the promotional price from thereon. If you put your prices up, the subscription price does not change. You have to go in and manually change each contract. I don't want to offer a fixed price to our customers. I am offering a service to make their lives easier so they don't have to visit us every month to place their orders. When our prices change, the subscription price should change. Fixed pricing would only be useful if I could set an expiry date.
Thank you for your feedback!Totally hear you on the need to improve the experience in selecting products. We’ve shared your feedback internally. As for the promotions, I recommend you create a discount in the Shopify admin. When doing so, you can select if it applies to one-time purchases, subscriptions, or both. If you select subscriptions or both, you will see a section at the bottom that allows you to limit the use of the discount on recurring payments for subscriptions. This allows you to limit the discount to only the first order or a set up a maximum number of orders for which the discount can be applied. You can create an automatic discount or a discount code, as you prefer. Hope this helps!
