Give customers control over theirNext Order
Subscribers add, swap, or reschedule their next order in a tap — while the app recovers failed payments and wins back cancellations inside the checkout your store already runs.
Flat fee per order. Never a percentage of your sales.
Customers stay when the next order works for them
Shoppers get real control over what ships next. You get automatic revenue recovery and one admin for the entire billing lifecycle.
Your customers shape every upcoming order
One tap drops a subscriber into their portal, no password or login required. From there they add a one-time item, swap a product, move the date, or skip a cycle themselves. Every item they add lifts the value of an order you were already going to ship.
- Add-to-next-order upsells on the customer portal
- Reschedule, ship now, or skip in a single tap
- Self-service swaps and cancellations
Let shoppers add to their next order from any product page
Give subscribers an easy way to build their Next Order without having to go through checkout. Logged in users with an active subscription can drop an extra item straight into an order that's already shipping — driving up your AOV.
- Add-to-next-order option built into the product page
- One-time, subscribe & save, or add to next order in one control
- Shows the user's Next Order ship date
Turn in-person sales into subscriptions — skip the first shipment
Plenty of brands sell the same product in person and online. When a customer already has it — picked up at your counter, office, salon, or a pop-up — Next Order Subscriptions starts their subscription and fulfills that first order without shipping. No duplicate boxes, no refunds, no manually canceling orders. Refills then ship right on the normal schedule.
- First order auto-fulfilled with no shipment, tracking, or notification
- Shoppers choose "Purchased in person" or "Ship my first item" on the product page
- First order free, a deposit, or your call — refills bill on the usual schedule
First order free — won't ship. Your next order ships in 4 weeks.
We'll ship your first item now and start your subscription.
First order free, then $45.00 every month
Catch churn before it costs you
Most churn is quiet. A card expires, an item goes out of stock, a renewal fails. Next Order Subscriptions catches these early, retries the payment on a schedule you control, and offers a save when someone heads for the door.
- Smart dunning with tunable retry schedules
- Expiring-card and low-stock alerts
- Cancel flow with automatic save offers
Build the offer, then automate the promotions
Set the plans customers subscribe to — with separate first-order and recurring discounts — then layer on rules that run promotions on their own.
A different discount for the first order and every one after
Create subscription plans at any frequency, then set two discounts on each: one for the initial order and one for every recurring order. Reward customers for staying — a modest welcome discount up front, a bigger one on every order after.
- Separate discounts for the first order vs. recurring orders
- Any frequency, with multiple delivery options per plan
- First order free, discounted, or a starter kit — your call
Promotions that run themselves
Layer automated promotions on top of any subscription. Set a condition and an action — when this happens, do that — and the app applies it to the right orders on its own, no manual edits per subscriber.
- 15% off any add-on item
- Free gift on the 3rd order
- Loyalty members get an extra 5% off subscription orders
Analytics built for recurring revenue
Four views that answer what a growing subscription program actually asks — from program health to full visibility into how customers manage their own subscriptions.
Your subscription program, at a glance
Open the dashboard to MRR, AOV, active subscribers, and churn up top, then growth, lifecycle, and the products keeping subscribers around — the health of your program in one screen.
- Active subscriptions, MRR, AOV, and churn
- Lifecycle status: active, paused, cancelled, failed
- Top products ranked by active subscribers
A flat fee per order, not a cut of your sales
Nearly every other subscription app takes 1 to 1.5% of each order, so their bill climbs as your average order value rises. We charge the same flat fee whether an order is $20 or $2,000, and your per-order rate drops as your volume grows.

Figures assume a $75 average order value and use each app's published rack rates (as of October 2026) against whichever of our plans is cheapest at that volume (labeled under each figure). That comes out roughly 22% under the closest rival at 5,000 orders. Since competitors bill on a share of sales, the gap only widens as your average order value climbs. All product names and trademarks are the property of their respective owners and are used here for comparison only.
Questions, answered
The essentials on how Next Order Subscriptions works, what it costs, and how it fits your store.
Does it work with Shopify's native subscriptions?
Yes — we're built on top of Shopify Subscriptions, not a separate system beside it. Next Order Subscriptions works through Shopify's subscription contracts framework, infrastructure, and provider tools, enriching the native subscription process in ways unique to each business and its customers. Your contracts, selling plans, and payment data live inside Shopify the whole time.
How is pricing calculated?
You pay a flat fee per recurring subscription order, never a percentage of sales. Starter is $25/month (first 100 recurring orders free, then $0.75 each), Growth is $149/month (volume pricing from $0.50 down to $0.40 per order), and Enterprise SLA is $499/month (a flat $0.40 per order with priority support and a 99.9% uptime SLA). Only recurring orders are metered — the initial checkout order is never charged.
Do you take a percentage of my sales?
No. We charge the same flat per-order fee whether an order is $20 or $2,000. Most other subscription apps take 1–1.5% of each order, so their bill climbs as your average order value rises — ours doesn't.
What can my customers do with their next order?
Through a one-time magic link — no login required — or from their customer account, subscribers can add items to their next order, change its delivery date, and see the promotions applied to it. They can also add products to their next order directly from your product pages.
Can I set different discounts for the first order and recurring orders?
Yes. When you build a subscription plan you set the discount for the initial order and the discount for recurring orders separately. A common setup is a modest first-order discount with a larger recurring discount, so the savings reward customers who stay subscribed rather than people who sign up for a one-time deal and cancel.
Can the first order ship a different product than recurring orders?
Yes. With product swap you set the initial order to one product and recurring orders to another — for example, a "Starter Kit" on the first order, then a "Refill Kit" on every order after. The swap is configured on the plan and happens automatically each cycle, so subscribers always get the right product without managing it themselves.
Can I run limited-time discounts on subscription orders?
Yes. You can apply time-based discounts to subscription orders so your subscribers always get the best deal available. For example, if your subscriptions are normally 10% off but you're running a 15% off sale for a month, you can have every subscription order processed in that window get 15% off too — then revert to the standard rate automatically when the sale ends.
Can I add free gifts to subscription orders?
Yes. You can set up rules that automatically add a free gift to subscription orders — for every subscriber, for a specific plan, or only for orders processed during a set time frame. It's a simple way to reward loyalty or run a limited-time promotion without touching each subscription by hand.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — the Starter plan includes a 7-day free trial.
Will I have to migrate my subscription data?
Only if you already have subscriptions running. If you're new to subscriptions, there's nothing to migrate — you can start selling right away. If you're already using another subscription service — including Shopify's own Subscriptions app — you'll need to migrate those existing subscriptions over to Next Order Subscriptions.
Give subscribers a next order they'll actually keep
Install in minutes on the checkout your store already runs. Your data stays in Shopify, you recover revenue that would have slipped away, and you pay one flat fee per order.
