Make your membership product a subscription

While zora supports one-time purchase memberships, it also supports subscriptions. To get started, install a subscription app from the Shopify app store. zora is compatible with all subscription apps. Once installed, create your first subscription rule.

Structure your subscription rules

First choose your subscription frequency (e.g. weekly, monthly, or yearly). If you offer multiple frequencies (e.g. monthly and yearly), create one plan per frequency.

Then choose one pricing model:

• none (inherits price defined in your membership product)
• fixed amount discount
• percent discount
• fixed product price

Need help deciding on a plan? We’ve put together common subscription patterns for single-tier and multi-tier memberships.

⚠️ When turning your membership into a subscription, check “this product requires only selling plan options”.

Best practices

We recommend using no more than 3 frequencies (e.g. weekly, monthly, yearly) or 3 tiers (standard, premium, plus).

Things to keep in mind

By design, once your membership product becomes a subscription product, the one-time purchase flow is ignored. zora expects you to choose either a “one-time purchase” model or a “subscription” model, not both.

If you want your membership to remain one-time purchase, do not convert it to a subscription.
