With a WooCommerce store in place, you must be sure that your store offers all of the features necessary and as expected by your customers. In other words, the store must offer a simple interface and an excellent buying experience.
While entrepreneurs do all that’s needed to enhance their store functionality, one aspect that often goes unnoticed is that of a subscription payment gateway. Regular customers come back to purchase the same item after a certain time. Offering them the ease to subscribe to the product improves the store experience.
What happens here is that once a product is subscribed, the same order automatically repeats after, say a month. Meaning that the customer need not manually place the order. The store will do the job of ensuring that the customer receives the product at the right time.
In case you have been planning to add a similar feature, this article will help you decide on the best subscription payment gateway plugin. Also, you can opt for WPCustomify support services to get the assistance and deployment help regarding the same.
