Initial setup checklist

After completing the onboarding wizard, make sure you’ve covered these essentials:
You need at least one active subscription plan before customers can subscribe. Go to Subscription Plans in the app to create one.
Products won’t show subscription options until they’re assigned to a plan. Use the product assignment feature in the plan editor or the admin extensions.
The subscription widget must be added to your product pages via the Shopify Theme Editor. See Theme Extension Setup.
Place a test order with Shopify’s test payment gateway to make sure the subscription flow works end-to-end.
Allow customers to manage their subscriptions from their account page. See Customer Portal.
