What it does
Appstle Subscriptions adds recurring and prepaid purchases to Shopify. Existing contracts normally retain their agreed product prices when the store catalog changes. Merchants can edit selected contracts or enable automatic synchronization.
Choose which subscribers receive a price change
For one contract, open Subscriptions, select its ID and use the product's three-dot menu > Edit Price. For several, select their IDs and choose Update Product Prices from the right-hand menu.
To apply future catalog changes automatically, open Shop Settings > Automatic Updates and enable Sync product prices with store catalog. Existing contract prices update when the Shopify base price changes. SKU synchronization is separate: changed SKUs appear on future recurring orders. Decide whether current subscribers should keep their original price before enabling either setting.
Shopify plan limits
All amounts are USD. The monthly option is billed every 30 days; annual totals are paid yearly.

Starter adds manual subscriptions and loyalty tools. Business adds bundles and retention controls; Business Premium adds automatic price updates and address synchronization. Larger stores can ask about enterprise access. Paid plans offer a 14-day trial, and Appstle lists no transaction fee.
