### "World's Greatest Customer Service!"

April 1, 2026

5.0

My overall experience has surpassed my wildest expectations. I did not expect building my website to be this easy and I never would have dreamed that i could have this nice of a website without paying designers a lot of money.

Pros

Subbly is incredibly clear and easy to use. My learning curve has been much more rapid than I would have expected. It is also a great value. Before I used Subbly, the lowest price I had been quoted by web designers was $1600 and that was just for the landing page. I have spent far, far less than that. AND they host my site and keep track of. my sales, etc. I can't believe how much I get for what seems like very little money. The software makes payiing for credits simple. The AI builder works very well with my prompts and I am not someone who uses AI regularly. (I'm a 70 year-old grandmother who had never really used it before.) The customization capabilities seem endless. I have built a complicated website and the AI has been able to do anything that I asked of it. But the best thing of all is the customer service. If I have a problem, it takes no time for them to get back to me. They also host live sessions every weekday where I can talk to the engineers and get them to help me if I need it. They do business like people used to in the good old days when the seller really cared whether or not you were able to use the product and whether or not you were having any problems with it. I cannot say enough good things about Subbly.

Cons

There is nothing that I don't like about Subbly. This software wants a minimum of 100 characters and I would have to make things up.

### "Even An Old Techno-phobic Lady Found Success"

June 8, 2026

5.0

I am a 63 year old, not super tech savvy DIYer. I started with the AI tool and quickly learned that I didn't understand how to prompt the tool to do what I needed. Thankfully I was lead to the countless tutorials that are clear and sensible. When I couldn't quite get there without help, it was just a message away. Options from complete coding, AI or having Subbly build your site, makes it a one stop shop for those of us with big dreams but little expertise in web design. The back end tools and integrations with STRIPE, Mail Chimp and other useful apps makes setting up the shop itself doable and seamless. I confess I'm still baffled by the way the subscriptions I set up report, but that's getting sorted with lots of "AH HA!" moments on my side. Subbly was recommended to me and I solidly recommend it if you are building something from ground up.

Pros

The customer service team at Subbly is easily the most personalized I've encountered. \[sensitive content hidden\] , the AI help agent, is a short jump away with a link to relevant how to information. In the even that doesn't work, a human responds, either online or email, within 24 hours. I feel as though this team has not only great talent but also a genuine passion to help others use their tools to reach their business goals.

Cons

There's a learning curve. This isn't Subbly's fault. It's not magic, it's AI. I had never used AI so I didn't understand how prompting works efficiently. That being said, there are tools within Subbly to walk you though each step.

### "Customer Service could be better"

October 10, 2024

1.0

There was a lot of features that I didn't know how to use

Pros

I was supposed to have a meeting with someone to help me with the features and benefits and they changed the meeting to be with someone else and then it was cancelled and never rescheduled.

Cons

Customer Service not meeting the minimum requirements. It appears they do everything to reel you in and just leave you hanging.

### "Great Customer Service!!"

February 4, 2026

5.0

My experience with Subbly has been overwhelmingly positive, with excellent support, clear guidance, and a platform that’s easy to use.

Pros

The customer service was outstanding. I came in feeling nervous and unsure because I had very little knowledge of the app, but \[sensitive content hidden\] , the live support agent, was incredibly patient, clear, and kind. She walked me through everything and completely put me at ease. It honestly made my day.

Cons

There are some prompts to upgrade services, which I completely understand as part of running a business. That said, it can be a little frustrating for me right now, as I’m on a budget and have to be careful not to accidentally upgrade.

### "Love Subbly - exceeded my expectations from day one"

July 29, 2025

5.0

I love it, so easy to use, fantastic support. I would recommend to anyone starting a subscription business.

Pros

Easy to build a website and get it up and running within a couple of weeks. ( I am not a website builder just a business owner and I managed fine ) I have several subscription products on Subbly and they all work seamlessly. Customer service is amazing and so helpful and quick. They go out of their way to help.

Cons

Nothing, it just works really well, is easy to use and inexpensive. Customer service is great too. Compared to wordpress it's a breeze to use.

### "Best customer service anywhere"

May 8, 2025

5.0

I switched to subtly a couple years ago and never looked back! The reason I love it is that I am not so good with technical issues and they always patiently help me figure out what I need, including sending videos.

Pros

It is easy to update my needs and their customer service and support are The best. They reply quickly and in detail until I understand how to do what I need.

Cons

I would love an option like shop pay, that Shopify has, that saves customers payment info and they just purchase with one click.

### "Great support for first time user"

February 6, 2025

5.0

So far it's been a steeper learning curve than Shopify but given that I'm trying to create a more complicated customer flow with the subscription model, they provide a lot of extra resources to help you climb that learning mountain!

Pros

Their customer support is incredibly helpful - there are a lot of videos, the messaging response is prompt and thorough, and very user support friendly

Cons

It's harder to customize than Shopify -- the "elements" and "blocks" are harder to work with, not as first time user friendly

### "Highly Recommend"

December 4, 2024

5.0

I really would recommend Subbly if you are looking for an easy and effective way to set up a subscription website. The store configuration and website are ideal for subscriptions and memberships.

Pros

First and foremost, customer service is the number one pro with Subbly. Subbly's team truly goes above and beyond to help. As someone who has limited tech/software knowledge and wants to be able to just focus on my business, having a company that can help address website/store configuration questions and concerns immediately and in a succinct way is vital. Additionally, Subbly seems to be consistently adding features, improvements, and new ways to gain and maintain subscribers.

Cons

I have very little issues with Subbly so far. Any issues I have had, were immediately addressed and corrected.

### "Love Subbly & their support team!"

October 17, 2024

5.0

For our first couple of years in business, I used a competitor's back-end platform for my subscription box, and switching to Subbly was one of the best decisions I have made for my business! Subbly offers some great functionality (e.g., commitment terms), their platform is easy to use, and their support team is second to none. It's actually shocking (in a good way!) how responsive and helpful their support team is. If you're thinking of starting any sort of subscription business, don't even look at the other guys; go with Subbly!

Pros

Subbly's customer service and support is amazing! I also love being able to offer commitment terms to my subscribers. The financial commitment is obviously beneficial for my business, and my subscribers appreciate being able to pay monthly for any subscription length.

Cons

I honestly can't think of anything! During my 2+ years on Subbly, anytime I have had a question, concern, or issue, the Subbly team is quick to respond, help, and/or escalate to the developer team.

Subbly allows me to offer commitment terms to my subscribers, which is a fantastic feature. Also, Cratejoy's support was only okay when I first started with them, and by the time I left a couple years later, the support was absolutely terrible. Subbly's support blows theirs out of the water.

### "Love subbly ❤️"

March 3, 2024

5.0

Ive rarely needed customer support as its a fairly easy platform to set up and use (i am a technophobe btw! So this says a lot) however on the rare occasion ive needed support the team have been fab! Very quick too. Really cant say that for a lot of big platforms like wix, faire or mailerlite that i use often but are beyond frustrating to work with.

Pros

I do love subbly😍 my subbox would have churned out by now without subblys toolkit and the addons function is definitely helping the bottom line and ultimately my stress levels cause for every 1 that leaves at least 2 more have doubled their box 📦 😀

Cons

They are a newish platform so all functionality isnt in place as yet. The subbly i signed up to 2 years ago is a baby compared to the subbly of today. But they are constantly evolving and taking feedback from founders in the industry so are on the leading edge of all developments so im excited to see where well both end up! 😀

Reason for choosing Subbly

I considered swapping fully from wix to either subbly fully ot shopify with paywhirl or recharge for various reasons to be all on 1 platform. I was tied into a contract with wix so couldn't leave them fully when creating my subbox so just adding the subbly backend at checkout was the best fit. Also gives me the best of both worlds.

### "The best way to start a subscription business."

July 1, 2021

5.0

The best customer service you will ever find. They go above and beyond. Seriously, I have been putting them to work (unintentionally but I needed a lot of help/had a lot of questions) and they have graciously completed every task and answered every question.

Pros

It really is built subscription first. Where you would need a lot of plug ins and connecters to get started on other platforms like Shopify or WooCommerce, it's all built right in. So it really ends up saving you money because you don't have to pay for a lot of apps.

Cons

\>The emails that are triggered need to be able to come from a white labeled domain. >There is no direct integration with ANY CRM software. You would think at least salesforce or HubSpot, but nope. This isn't as big of a deal while I am still in beta but this is very important to me for scaling purposes. >There is currently no public API so I can't even get a developer to program an integration for me. But I have been informed a public one will be coming Fall-ish 2021.

### "Honest opinions from a 2+ year Subbly User"

February 1, 2022

5.0

Pros

If you are looking to get started with your subscription based business or even if you have been doing your business for years already, I 100% recommend Subbly. It is EXTREMELY USER FRIENDLY and there are so much options and customizable features for every niche. You dont have to code a single thing if you do not want to and you still have just as much customizable features as a pro web designer.

Cons

Subbly does offer basic email marketing, and it is editable. However, I think it needs more flexibility. Unlike Klaviyo or Mailchimp which are specifically designed for email marketing, Subbly is limited in its capabilites. Although Subbly does offer a multitude of 3rd party integrations, such as Klaviyo, it is still extremely limited. For example, I use Klaviyo, however, Subbly does not have all metrics on Klaviyo for it to even work to its full potential. If you were moving from WooCommerce and had Klaviyo integrated, and then you moved to Subbly, you will quickly learn of the "cuts" you no longer have in your email marketing simply because Subbly does not, and has not, offered a "true" or "full" integration. Personally, I feel like it's a, lack of a better term "half assed" integration. I fully believe that if Subbly wants to offer certain 3rd party integrations, like Klaviyo, it needs to be working at 100% capacity, not 75%. I beleive "little" things like this actually become a big problem when it comes to growth and eventually just becomes a burning whole in your wallet. I have brought this issue up to Subbly and they recommended getting Zapier as a solution. So now, I am paying for Subbly system, but also Klaviyo (because Subbly does not offer a flexible email marketing), but now I have to pay for Zapier as well. Then you may have to pay someone to set up your Zapier because Zapier isnt the most user friendly application. It just adds up and can be mentally exhausting.

I was on WooCommerce and I was not using WooCommerce Subscription. I was using some other 3rd party plug in for my subscriptions. One day I woke up and noticed my subscriptions/customers were gone. The plugin I was running cancelled all of my customers. I had left Subbly to go to WooCommerce because I THOUGHT I wanted something different. I reached out to Subbly, told them what happened, and asked if they could salvage my customers. Luckily, Subbly was able to migrate ALL OF MY CUSTOMERS back to Subbly. If it wasnt for this I would have just given up my business. You really dont know what you have until its gone. Even without this dramatic tragic event, there were SO MANY FEATURES I did not have on WooCommerce that I really wish I did. Now im back on Subbly running strong. I doubt ill ever leave. I learned my lesson.

### "Everything I needed plus some!"

November 29, 2022

5.0

Overall this has been wonderful! I am alone in building this business, except when working with subbly. Its everything I didnt know I needed for my business, walks through a clear setup list, and has features waiting for me as I build up to needing more automations. The support team has been like a partmer to me, making sure I understand how things work in the tool and what option I have if an option isnt available (for example, giving customers account credit could be easier, but support gave me two clear alternatives to use with their system to pull off something similar).

Pros

I can't believe how many features this one system has. I've had to rewrite the business plan a couple times and each and every way I try to do it I have an option here with this website because of the many features they offer. As I've come up with ideas from my customers as well, subbly seems to always have an option for doing what I want or working to accomplish it in some way. The support is also top tier, always there to help and always willing to fully understand my problem and authentically brainstorm with me as an owner working with their system. Its been a great partnership.

Cons

So far, because there are so many features the learning curve is pretty steep. (But for being what it is, I also find it very user friendly to navigate around and the articles talk to me like I'm a real person so it makes it easy to read through those to find my answer.)

### "Oustanding Product & Service"

June 8, 2020

5.0

It has been great, they know what they are doing. If you have a subscription box use Subbly, they know all about them...this is a massive help. My website provider did have a subscription payment option but not for quarterly, whereas Subbly knows it's as popular and as key as monthly.

Pros

I love how easily the checkout option was to set up with Wix...I think together with the step by step instructions I only had to add support a couple of things...which they came straight back to me...really helpful. I probably would have done everything on Subbly if I hadn't already spent ages setting up wix and I had committed to a large annual cost with a couple of upgrades.

Cons

I don't think there are any negative things to say about the software. I would have liked an option of my customer selecting one of 6 free greeting cards (these are also for sale individually) if they spent over a certain amount or buying a one-off box for as a gift, it's not an issue I just have an excuse to contact the customer and ask them. The Subbly team is constantly adding, improving, and updating the software.

I feel like if I spend more time with Subbly University, I could use it better. I'm working towards it. But I seriously appreciate you guys. You've been incredibly patient and responsive.

Pros

Subby has made it so that I could easily get my subscription box business off the ground. Their customer service is KING. Seriously unparalleled. It feels like I have Subbly admin as my employees helping me every step of the way.

Cons

I do struggle with using software. The site isn't intuitive (to me) and that is why I have relied so heavily on customer service.

### "Subbly's website builder and subscription format make it easy to get up an running..."

November 4, 2020

5.0

I have reached out multiple times via chat and their team is incredibly responsive and helpful - usually within the hour. Great customer service!

Pros

The website builder is very intuitive. Drag and drop mostly with no coding required at all (unless you want to ). They have a variety of templates that allow even the most tech-phobic entrepreneurs to simply drop in their unique text and photos. Very efficient. The subscription tool that incorporates the typeform survey is genius. It allows sellers to customize products in the subscription without having to go out of their site or follow up with an email. The tracking tools are very user-friendly as well. The ability for users to purchase one-time products and not just a subscription is a great feature.

Cons

The basics of the website builder and functionality are a great start but there are some customizations on the product side, like a survey integration on the one time product that I'd like to see.

May 25, 2022

5.0

I manage all my subscription box operations from Subbly super easily every day. And their team is fantastic, they're brilliant in helping you solve your issue ASAP!

Pros

No need to play around with your store for ages, you have everything inside Subbly! Plus the support team is super fast in answering and they're always releasing new features to help manage your subscription business. Finding Subbly literally saved me when I started off my subscription box. Really intuitive and easy to use, would recommend 1000% to anyone in need of a reliable platform to manage a subscription-based business!

Cons

There are few features they're still working on (like coupons), I'd love to be able to add a product to an order based on a coupon clients use!

### "Where to begin..."

April 27, 2021

5.0

HEAVEN! Especially for the price :)

Pros

I have been SOOOOOO impressed with Subbly for its major role in my business! I recently rolled out product-based subscription boxes and I COULD NOT do this without the gorgeous and intuitive Subbly software! In the world of SAAS-Y products, they bring all the value for my money! Subbly was the ONLY provider that helped me achieve my goal of having a recurring subscription box where people pick their products. I LOVE that my customers have a simple and useful dashboard and sophisticated features that other services either don't have or don't provide at an affordable rate for a growing entreprise. Customer service is always 100% knowledgeable and friendly! Can't wait to see what new functionality you come up with to make my business flow great and look even greater!

Cons

There are three things I need to be happier: 1) Single item coupons WITH unique codes and expiration dates (useful in both single and subscription products) 2) I need a way to provide affiliate links to my ambassadors for referring my single products and/or a specific subscription in my store. These also need to have an expiration date option.. 3) I need to be able to provide additional options to subscribers such as buying the 'basic' box for a specific rate OR the 'luxury' box for a higher rate. All within the same subscription listing. It's too exhausting to do multiple listings and it makes for an unnecessarily clunky checkout where they can't weigh which one is better within checkout.

Reason for choosing Subbly

\- Functionality - More affordable

### "A good starting place for your subscription business"

September 24, 2020

4.0

A great place to quickly and cheaply setup your Subscripton business. A bit glitchy and a bit simplistic but it works to get you off the ground without breaking the bank.

Pros

\*Most things you need to get going are in one place and that you don't need to bolt on and pay for apps (you do but less essential compared to Shopify) \* Quick responses from customer service \* The customer's account for managing their subscription is excellent, much clearer than Bold/Shopify. \* Quick and easy to build a site without any coding \* Much cheaper than what you'd end up paying for Shopify/Bold \* The ability to start subscriptions in the future and have the customer decide how many reoccurrences they want for their gift.

Cons

\* Lack of shipping options for customers - proves difficult to have a profitable one price fits all option \* Somewhat defensive customer service responses \* Glitchy - had to re-save sections 20+ times \* No show-cart step \* No stock control/variants for non-subscription items \* Limits to what you can do on the site, mobile and tablet aren't completely intuitive/customisable/responsive \* Customers can't have more than one subscription in their basket

### "The only platform I'd consider recommending"

April 26, 2024

5.0

Exceptional - the support team are unmatched.

Pros

I managed to get my entire website and subscription service setup in 6 days with the help of the team - really impressive.

Cons

Some things can be a little manual to do and a couple of things I'd like are not currently possible. Also Royal Mail integration is missing which is critical for me.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Subbly

Because it's a subscription first platform.
