Offer a custom box with subscription

You can offer your customers the option to compose their own box by selecting the products they want to receive at a given frequency as part of their subscription.

You can configure a promotional offer based on the number of products selected. Example:

  • 1 product selected = -10%
  • 2 products selected = -15%
  • 3 products selected = -20%
  • 4 products selected = -25%

The customer selects their products using categories if needed (a product is linked to a category), chooses the frequency at which they want to receive their box, and completes their order.

Prerequisite: You must have created the product pages for products that will be available at the composition step. You can refer to the following article: Sell a product individually

Step 1: Create box subscription frequencies

Section titled “Step 1: Create box subscription frequencies”

Start by creating the subscription frequencies that will be available for your custom box.

  1. Go to Subscriptions > Advanced > Frequencies.

  2. Click the create button in the top right and fill in the form:

    • Site
    • Alert: check it to send renewal notifications for this frequency
    • Interval: monthly, weekly, …
    • Cycle Count: 1, 2, …

For a monthly frequency, enter: monthly interval and 1 cycle. The subscription will renew on the anniversary date, every month.

Step 2: Select products available for box composition

Section titled “Step 2: Select products available for box composition”
  1. Go to Products > Products, then click the small pencil icon next to the product you want to make available during box composition.

  2. Check the Composable plan (frequencies) box at the bottom of the product form and save. The box only appears when editing: the detail page of a product that is not a gift card does not show it.

The product will then be offered in the custom box.

Step 3: Create a promotional offer based on the number of products added to the box

Section titled “Step 3: Create a promotional offer based on the number of products added to the box”

You have the option to offer a discount based on the quantity of products taken with subscription. Example:

  • 1 product with subscription = -10%
  • 2 products with subscription = -15%
  • 3 products with subscription = -20%

This can be a percentage discount or a fixed amount.

  1. To configure such an offer, go to Subscriptions > Advanced > Composable offers.

  2. Click the create button in the top right and fill in the form:

    • Quantity: which product quantity the offer applies to
    • Price: fill in if you are offering a fixed amount discount
    • Percent Off: fill in if you are offering a percentage discount (enter 20 for 20%)
    • Active: for the offer to be displayed on the composition page
    • Site: to link the offer to your site
