PayWhirl's subscription app works directly with the products in your Shopify store. There are two ways you can associate your Shopify products with selling plans from PayWhirl.
Directly from your Shopify product pages, one at a time.
From the PayWhirl app, in bulk.
1) Add purchase options from your product pages in Shopify
Once you install the app, you will see the 'purchase options' on your product pages in Shopify, directly below the variants section.
Here you can select an existing selling plan group you've created, or you can create one on the fly using our simple plan editor.
Apply subscriptions to all product variants
If you click the + Subscriptions button, the selling plan group will be added to all the product's variants.
Once the plan is added, you can decide to keep the one-time purchase option or remove it by selecting the "Only show this product with these purchase options" box.
Apply subscriptions to specific variants only
You can also apply a selling plan group to individual variants, rather than the entire product. This is helpful when you only want certain variants to be available as subscriptions.
Open the product in your Shopify admin and go to the Variants section.
Click the variant you want to make available for subscription.
On the variant details page, scroll down to the Purchase options section.
Add the appropriate selling plan group for that variant.
Repeat those steps for each variant that should have a subscription option.
In this example, that would be the Medium / Blue, Large / Green, and Large / Blue.
Important:
You can’t add subscription options to the entire product and then remove them from specific variants. Instead, you must add the selling plan group directly to each variant that should have subscription options.
If you have already enabled the Paywhirl app block in your theme, you will see your product page's subscription options after linking the selling plan group.
If you do not see the subscription options on your product page, you can follow these instructions to finish your theme installation. If you have issues, we can help troubleshoot.
2) Add subscription options from the PayWhirl app in bulk
If you'd like to add your subscription options to multiple products or entire collections at once, you can from the selling plan settings in the PayWhirl app by clicking the Add products button in the top right corner of the selling plan group details page.
PayWhirl App > Plans > Edit Selling Plan Group > Add Products
On the Add / Edit Products page in PayWhirl, you can associate your subscription selling plans with products or remove/adjust them in bulk.
You can click the Add button next to each product, which will only add the selling plan to that specific product, or you can select multiple using the checkboxes and select Add in bulk to apply them to multiple at once.
To remove subscriptions from products in bulk, just select the products you want and click the Remove in bulk link at the top of the page.
