Hi,

I intend to integrate a subscription service. Currently, e-commerce is managed by Community Store, which only allows single payments and not subscriptions. Would it be possible to integrate Stripe or any other method that allows subscriptions (monthly/annual) with our CommunityStore products? Or is there a way to have Community Store manage subscriptions?

Thanks

I have used it on this project with great affect.

Do you have also Community Store to manage your products and orders? Can [Macareux Stripe Subscription](https://market.concretecms.com/products/macareux-stripe-subscription/0e011c66-d1b6-11ee-b9df-0a97d4ce16b9) be integrated into the Community Store?

Thanks

There’s no integration between Community Store and Macareux’s Stripe Subscription add-on (that I’m aware of). The serve quite different purposes.

This old comment here still applies:

> This unfortunately isn’t possible with Community Store in its current form. There are actually a lot of differences between handling one-off payments, versus handling recurring payments. Things like handling failed payments, expiring credit card reminders, sending invoices, etc, all take a different approach than what a traditional shopping cart handles. Sometimes this can be quite hard to explain to clients, as from their perspective they just see them both as customer payments with a checko…

The main thing I’d emphasise is to look at subscriptions as their own process and management, and not an extension of a shopping cart.

One potential quick solution is that you use Community Store to manage the display of your products, but you turn off the cart and checkout. Then, you create a simple link between the product (maybe using an attribute) and a pre-configured Stripe subscription link - [Create a payment link | Stripe Documentation](https://docs.stripe.com/payment-links/create)

I think its hard to help in a solution like this without know exactly what you are trying to achieve.

I have worked on some interesting blends of both these systems that works really well.

One is a subscription model that once you have subscribed you can then purchase products, in that case a gym class. The user can only sign up for class if they have an active membership.

Another was a model where you can buy digital items or you get them free if you buy a subscription using a blend of both systems. Different price depending on what user group you are in (using Discounts).

With the stripe addon all you are really doing is adding a users to a certain user group and then using concrete’s permission system to allow or deny content.

In the case of Nourysh we have a trail sign up which using concrete to add a users to a certain user group on sign up (trial group) and then I have set that users group to remove people after 14days.

The user then has the option to paid for a subscription to see content or not.
