Custom Subscription App

Replaces Recharge, Appstle, Skio and Bold

Recurring billing on Shopify's own subscription contracts, with the delivery logic your operation actually runs on. No percentage of revenue, no per-order fee, no plan tiers.

What you get

• Charges saved cards directly through Shopify, so you stay out of PCI scope
• A delivery calendar with your real cut-offs, blackout dates and lead times
• Customers pause, skip, swap items and change delivery day themselves
• Failed payments retried on your schedule, timed to dispatch rather than an arbitrary 24 hours
• A dry-run report before every charge, so you see the money before it moves
• Your own customer portal, built headless if you want it on your own domain

How long it takes

About one month

What I need from you

Collaborator access to your Shopify store as a developer. If you want the customer portal on your own domain, a subdomain too.

If it goes wrong

Everything is built against a development store first and nothing touches your live site until you have seen it working. Migrations run as a dry run you approve, and your existing app stays switched on until the first live run reconciles. If it does not match, we roll back.

£1,000 to build, then £50 a month

The £1,000 covers designing and writing it around how your billing actually works. The £50 a month covers me running it: hosting, monitoring every billing run, keeping it working through Shopify's quarterly API changes, and making small changes when your process changes. Recharge charges a platform fee plus a percentage of everything you process, so at £40,000 a month you are paying several hundred pounds before per-transaction fees. This does not move when your revenue does.
