Getting started

Installing Miko Subscribe & Save

Install the app, create your first offer, and add the subscribe widget to your product template.

Installation is three steps: install the app, create your first offer, and add the widget block to your product template. The free plan needs no credit card and ships the whole subscribe and save job, capped on active subscribers rather than on features.

Step-by-step

Install the app from the Shopify App Store and approve the permissions in your Shopify admin. The app opens under Apps → Miko Subscribe & Save.
Open Offers and create your first subscribe and save offer. See Creating a subscribe and save offer for what each field does.
In your Shopify admin go to Online Store → Themes → Customize, open a product template, and add the Subscribe & Save app block where you want the delivery options to appear, usually just above the add-to-cart button. Save the theme.
Open that product on your storefront. You should now see a one-time option and a subscribe option with a delivery frequency menu.

The widget only renders on products that have an offer. The theme block checks whether the product has any selling plans and renders nothing when it does not, so an empty product page means the product is not attached to an offer yet, not that the block is broken.

The optional cart labels block

A second theme block, Subscription cart labels, adds subscription wording to cart and drawer line items on themes that do not show the selling plan name by default. It targets the page body rather than a section, so you add it once from the theme editor and it applies everywhere the cart renders.

What permissions the app asks for, and why

Permission	What it is for
Read and write products	Attach and manage subscribe and save offers, which are selling plan groups on your products.
Read and write your subscription contracts	Read the live subscriptions, and apply skip, pause, swap, reschedule and cancel.
Read and write customers	Show the subscriber on their subscription, and send the secure Shopify link a buyer uses to update a failing card.
Read customer payment methods	Tell whether the card behind a subscription is the reason a charge failed, so the right recovery email goes out.
Read themes and files	Detect where the Subscribe & Save block sits, and resolve your theme logo so the customer portal matches your storefront.
Read orders	Show real per-delivery status in the portal timeline: placed, processing, fulfilled.

The app also requires Shopify's one-time subscription APIs access grant, which Shopify issues to the app rather than to your store. There is nothing for you to approve separately.
