About Bold Subscriptions

Bold Subscriptions is a customizable subscription management app built for Shopify merchants. It streamlines recurring orders by integrating directly into the Shopify checkout, allowing merchants to turn one-time buyers into loyal subscribers.

The subscription offerings are highly flexible. Merchants can easily add subscription options to products, set up automatic discounts for subscribers, and configure a variety of billing frequencies to encourage recurring revenue. The app supports setting cutoff days to align billing and fulfillment cycles for optimized operations.

For subscribers, Bold Subscriptions provides a user-friendly self-service portal to seamlessly manage subscriptions. Customers can upgrade or downgrade their subscription plan, reschedule deliveries, pause orders, and swap subscription products.

On the merchant side, Bold Subscriptions generates actionable analytics through its dashboard and detailed CSV report downloads. It also integrates with Peel Analytics for enhanced subscription data and insights.

By natively integrating into Shopify’s checkout and core features, Bold Subscriptions facilitates a smooth recurring revenue program. It works cohesively with Shopify Payments, leading payment gateways, and other critical business tools through its extensive integration ecosystem.

With an experienced in-house migration team, Bold Commerce offers merchants a zero-downtime transition to Bold Subscriptions at no additional cost. Ongoing support and maintenance ensures that the app continues providing value long after the migration is complete.

    Best use for allowing subscription products

    Reviewed on 2018/04/10

    Pros

    I like how customers can have the option to add recurring products to their cart and rather than take them to the checkout they can continue shopping and if they choose something else to add, its on the same checkout. Its a good flow.

    Cons

    Initially there seems to be a couple glitches using my responsive theme but I was able to figured it out.

    So so, customer service was not super helpful when I ran into issues, and I felt very uncomfortable trusting the order payment status shown inside of Shopify.

    Perhaps these issues have now been resolved with Subscription apps using the Shopify checkout directly instead of a third party checkout page.

    Pros

    How quickly I was able to build, manage, and deploy my first subscription product on Shopify.

    Cons

    Errors I faced while using the product, such as orders with failed payments being marked as paid.

    Alternatives Considered

    Pros

    It was integrated into my shopify account pretty seamlessly, but it did not really function the way I intended.

    Cons

    The way it's advertised made me thing this would work for my business, but it had a lot of un-customizable things that made me not be able to use it after trying for a long time.

    I have used bold with a several clients from inception and in the case of existing setup. Overall it gets the job done but there are platforms out there that do what bold does and much better. Almost all of my clients have moved on from bold.

    Pros

    The ease of integration and setup is ideal. Anyone can get started.

    Cons

    If you are looking to have a more comprehensive subscription program, this might not age well for you.
