How Do I Create a Subscription in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:11 pm

A subscription in WooCommerce is a product that is sold by recurring payments. Typically, this means that the customer pays for the product on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis.

In order to set up a subscription, you first need to create a product that will be sold as a subscription. To do this, go to WooCommerce > Products > Add New.

Once you’re on the “Add New Product” page, you’ll need to select the “Subscription” product type from the dropdown menu. This will open up some additional options specifically for subscriptions.

The first thing you’ll need to do is enter a price for the subscription. This can be either a one-time payment or recurring payments. If you want to offer recurring payments, you’ll need to select the frequency (weekly, monthly, or yearly) and enter the length of time for which the subscription will be active.

PRO TIP: If you are considering creating a subscription in WooCommerce, be aware that there are potential risks involved. There have been reports of people losing money and/or their personal information when subscribing to certain services. Be sure to do your research and only subscribe to services that you trust.

Once you’ve entered all of the relevant information for your subscription product, scroll down to the “Subscription Options” section and select the appropriate options. These options include whether or not sign-ups are allowed during checkout, whether or not subscribers can cancel their own subscriptions, and whether or not they can choose their own start date.

After you’ve selected all of the appropriate options, scroll down to the “Pricing” section and enter the price of the subscription. You can also enter a sign-up fee, if applicable. Once you’re finished, click on the “Publish” button to make your subscription live.
