## About Joy Subscriptions
Joy Subscriptions is a Shopify subscription app for small merchants launching their first subscription program. Built by Avada (the team behind Joy Loyalty, a separate loyalty rewards app), Joy Subscriptions removes the upfront cost and complexity that typically comes with subscription platforms. Pricing model: No value, no charge. Joy is free for the first 6 months OR until your store generates $1M in cumulative subscription revenue, whichever comes first. After that, Joy charges 1.5% of subscription order value. There is no monthly fee, no per-transaction fee, and no setup cost. Most boutique merchants reach the $1M threshold in year 2 or 3, meaning Joy is genuinely $0 for the launch and growth phase. Built for first-time subscription merchants. Unlike enterprise-focused alternatives, Joy includes free 1-on-1 setup with a named support partner who configures your subscription plans, installs the widget, and walks you through the customer portal. This "white-glove" onboarding is included on every plan, including the free tier. Complete subscription toolkit from day one: - Subscribe & save with flexible delivery schedules (weekly, biweekly, monthly, custom) - Build-a-box for curated boxes, tasting flights, and assorted product bundles - Branded customer portal — subscribers skip, pause, swap, and update payment methods themselves - Smart dunning — automatic payment retry with intelligent timing and customer notifications - Prepaid subscriptions (3, 6, 12 months) — perfect for gifting and cellar-building - Native integration with Shopify Flow, Shopify POS, Klaviyo, and the Avada ecosystem - Analytics dashboard for subscription revenue, churn, retention, and cohort analysis - Free migration from Recharge, Bold, Appstle, and Seal — Joy's CS team handles migration manually to preserve active subscriptions and payment authorization. Joy Subscriptions is a distinct product from Joy Loyalty (Avada's loyalty rewards app) and unrelated to WithJoy.com (wedding registry). Trusted by small Shopify merchants worldwide. 4.9★ on the Shopify App Store across 379+ verified merchant reviews.
