Seriously considering moving to Wix

[thetingoat]

I'm seriously considering moving to Wix. I have been checking them out and their product subscription feature is super easy to use and a plus to upsell and create loyalty with current customers. I'll give it a few more months on the Weebly platform. Makes me sad because I have used it for the last 7 years for my eCommerce.

Do you use Square or have a Square account, @thetingoat? While we don't have subscription payments with the online store features of sites built with the Weebly editor, Square offers subscription payments and loyalty. You also might want to consider a Square Online store (which was built using the newer website editor after Square acquired Weebly in 2018).

Yes, I use square and even tried to create individual links for product subscriptions and add to a specific page for that purpose, and then square said I can't. I'm getting truly fed up. Weebly and square are the same company, square eCommerce obviously runs on the Weebly platform. If I have to go through the trouble of creating a new website, I've had my current one for almost 7 years, I'll go somewhere else where I don't have to jump around.

I think what you would want to do is set up a product for the first payment of the subscription, then once you have that and the customer's email you'd create a recurring invoice and send that online to them. The other option is to make a subscription payment with a Square Online Checkout link. You should be able to use the link that is made with the item in your Square Dash as an external link with a button, image, or text link on your website.
