Sell products as subscriptions: coffee every two weeks, filters every three months, anything your customers buy again and again. On the product page the customer picks One-Time Purchase or a delivery interval, with an optional subscribe-and-save discount, and at checkout they agree to your subscription terms. Until now Zen Cart had no current subscription plugin for any 2.x release.
Renewals work with every payment module. Before each delivery the customer gets an email with a Renew Now link that fills their cart, and they check out as usual at that day's prices and shipping, so nothing is ever charged without them. A renewal not placed in time is skipped and the next one reminded; three in a row pause the subscription. An hourly scheduler (a cron job or an outside cron service) sends the reminders.
Customers skip, pause, resume, change the interval or quantities, and cancel from My Subscriptions in their account. You manage every subscription under Customers > Subscriptions: search, filters, the full history with who did what, the consent record with the exact terms each customer agreed to, and actions of your own. Each product gets a Subscription panel (off, optional or required, the intervals offered, the discount, a fixed number of deliveries). The delivery choice is a product option the plugin manages, so no template file is changed, and all five emails show in the free Preview Email plugin.

Need it tailored to your store? We customize our own plugins: an extra option, a different placement, a hook into something else you run, or a version for a template that names things differently. Tell us what you have in mind through
