Subscriptions and bookings earn money over time, so the details decide the result: what happens when a card fails, a plan changes or a customer cancels.
What to look for
- Recurring billing logic. Retries, grace periods, proration and invoices must be handled automatically.
- Member access. Content, products or services should unlock and lock with the plan.
- Booking calendars. Availability, buffers, staff and time zones need to work together.
- Deposits and cancellations. Rules for deposits, refunds and no-shows protect your income.
- Reminders and reports. Automatic reminders cut no-shows; reports show churn and revenue.
How it differs
| Area | Standard store | Subscription or booking |
|---|---|---|
| Payment | One-off | Recurring with retries |
| Customer | Buys once | Has an account and plan |
| Risk | Abandoned cart | Churn and failed payments |
| Scheduling | None | Calendar, slots, reminders |
Red flags
- Failed payments are left for you to chase by hand.
- No cancellation or pause flow.
- Time zones are ignored in booking.
- Taxes on recurring invoices are not discussed.
Questions to ask on the first call
- How are failed payments retried and communicated?
- Can customers change or pause plans themselves?
- How do bookings handle time zones and staff?
