🔗 How to Connect Subscription Plans to Your Boxes #
Here’s how to link a subscription plan from your chosen subscription app to a box you’ve created in Easify Box Builder.
Overall flow:
Create your box in Easify Box Builder.
Create a subscription plan (with selling frequencies) in your subscription app.
Link that subscription plan to your box in Easify Box Builder.
Step 1: Create a Subscription Plan in Your Subscription App #
Easify Box Builder supports many subscription apps (listed at the end of this guide). In this example, we’ll use Appstle℠ Subscriptions App as an example, but you can follow similar steps in other subscription apps.
To create a new subscription plan:
Select Products: Choose all products included in your box and add them to the plan.
Set Subscription Frequency: Choose how often customers receive their box (e.g., weekly, monthly, quarterly).
There are several simple changes you can apply to the subscription plan selection block in your Box Builder page, such as customizing the title, subscription button label, default plan, or frequency display.
Customize Display: Click “Customize display” to edit:
Frequency name: By default, Easify Box Builder will import the frequency name from your third-party subscription app. However, you can change it to display shorter or more user-friendly names in the subscription block.
Frequency badge: By default, Easify Box Builder shows any discounts or incentives of each frequency as defined in your subscription app. You can leave the Frequency badge blank to hide it or only add a badge to highlight a specific frequency (for example, mark one as “Most popular”).
Section title: You can also change the default title “Select your plan” to your preferred title, or remove it entirely by leaving the Section title field blank.
Default option: Choose which subscription plan (“One-time purchase” or “Subscribe & Save”) is pre-selected for customers when the page loads.
Re-sync Subscription Plans:If you change (add/remove) subscription plans in your subscription app, or switch to another app, you need to re-sync by clicking the Sync (🔄) icon next to the “Select Subscription Plan” dropdown. This ensures Easify Box Builder displays the latest plans from your subscription app.
Re-sync Selling Frequency: If you update frequencies or other plan details in your subscription app, go back here and click “Sync again” to reflect the updates in your box. (Note: updates are not automatic.)
