Capture residual revenue with recurring payments.

Can you say with certainty how much revenue your store will bring in this month? If you offered subscription-based products, you’d have a much clearer picture.

WooCommerce Subscriptions gives you the flexibility to offer all kinds of subscription options—whether it’s for physical goods, digital products, or services. You can create a product-of-the-month club, set up weekly service plans, or even offer annual software packages. Plus, you can add sign-up fees, offer free trials, or set specific expiration dates for your subscriptions.

A subscription-based model will allow you to capture more residual revenue — and all you have to do is ship the orders.

New! Upgrade to version 7.8.0 to allow your shoppers to gift subscriptions to each other.
